| Reverse description | Frontal view of an octastyle temple with eight columns resting on a stepped podium, the pediment surmounted by a globe or acroterion; within the intercolumniation stands a frontal cult statue of Artemis Ephesia, wearing the kalathos (polos) on her head, her body adorned with the characteristic supports at her sides, and flanked by a crescent and a star in the upper field, emblems of her celestial aspect. The reverse legend encircles the entire composition, referencing Ephesus's distinguished status as a thrice-neocorate city. The architectural rendering reflects the grandeur of the Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. |
