| Reverse description | Standing figures of Ares and Tyche face one another in a formal, symmetrical composition. Ares, depicted in full military dress, stands to the right holding a spear, while Tyche stands to the left bearing a short sceptre. Both figures jointly support a small cult statue of Asclepius between them, referencing the celebrated sanctuary of Asclepius at Pergamum. The reverse legend, arranged in multiple lines around the field, records the issuing magistrate and the city's prestigious triple neocorate status. |
