| Reverse description | Athena, the patron deity of Priene, stands facing left in a dignified pose, wearing helmet and aegis. She extends her right hand to present a figure of Nike, while her left hand holds a long spear; behind her, a tree entwined by a serpent alludes to the sacred olive and the serpent of Athena's cult. A round shield rests upright at her feet to the right, reinforcing her martial aspect. The composition reflects the civic pride of Priene and the city's strong traditional association with the goddess. |
