| Reverse description | The emperor, in military attire, is depicted mounted on a horse striding to the right, his arm extended downward as he thrusts a spear toward a fallen enemy or prey below. Beneath the horse, two lions are rendered in relief, adding a dynamic and triumphalist dimension to the composition. The scene reflects a well-established provincial honorific type celebrating imperial virtus and military prowess. The reverse legend in Greek, distributed around the field, names the local strategos Menandros Pelides and identifies the issuing civic authority of the Apolloniates. |
