Obverse lettering ΑΥΤ ΚΑΙϹ Λ ϹΕΠΤ ϹΕΟΥΗΡΟϹ ΠΕΡ
(Translation: Emperor Caesar Lucius Septimius Severus Pertinax)
Reverse description Two deities stand in confronting composition within the reverse field: at left, Athena stands facing right, holding a round shield in her right hand and a spear in her left, embodying civic and martial virtue; at right, Asclepius stands facing, head turned right, holding his characteristic serpent-entwined staff. The pairing of these two divinities reflects Thyatira's religious and civic iconographic traditions in provincial bronze coinage. The reverse legend surrounding the figures records the issuing strategos and the city ethnic in Greek characters.
