Reverse description Homonoia composition depicting the Tyche of Thyatira and the Amazon Smyrna standing facing one another in the field. Between the two figures stands a flaming altar. Tyche holds a statuette of Apollo Tyrimnacos and a sceptre, while the Amazon holds statuettes of the twin Nemeses together with a double axe, a pelta shield, and a chlamys. The scene symbolises the civic concord between Thyatira and Smyrna, rendered with characteristic provincial Anatolian iconographic detail. The lengthy strategos legend encircles the composition.
