| Reversbeschreibung | Two standing and seated figures occupy the reverse field: at left, Caracalla, depicted in full military attire and laureate, stands facing left, extending a patera in his right hand while holding a long sceptre in his left; beside him, Zeus is seated left upon a throne, holding a small Nike in his outstretched right hand and a sceptre in his left. The composition reflects the divine associations claimed by the imperial house. The reverse legend, arranged around the field, records the name of the local strategos and the civic pride of Pergamum as the foremost thrice-neocorate city. |

Pergamum's claim to *tris neokoros* — temple wardenship three times over — was hard-won through decades of political maneuvering with Rome, and the city used every coin it struck as an argument for its primacy over rival Smyrna and Ephesus. The magistrate named in the legend, Julius Anthimos, held the strategia during Caracalla's reign, and his name appearing so prominently reflects the intense local competition for the prestige of issuing imperial-era civic bronzes.
At 42mm and over 41 grams, this is among the largest module struck by the Pergamene mint — a deliberate choice when civic rivalry made the physical weight of a coin a statement in itself.
