| Reverse description | Turreted, veiled, and draped bust of Tyche, the city goddess of Edessa, facing right, wearing a mural crown with multiple battlements symbolising the city walls. The veil falls behind the head, and drapery covers the shoulders in the convention of civic deity portraiture. The Greek legend Ο Μ ΕΔΕϹϹΑ is distributed around the field, identifying the civic authority of Edessa. The reverse reflects the standard provincial iconography of Tyche as protectress of the city. |
