| Reverse description | Heracles stands facing right, dominating the composition as he masters the Ceryneian Hind, grasping the creature firmly by its antlers with both hands. The hero is depicted in his characteristic heroic musculature, consistent with the Pergamene artistic tradition of monumental provincial bronze coinage. A two-line Greek inscription occupies the lower exergual area, while the reverse legend continues around the periphery of the field, citing the presiding strategos and the city's twice-neocorate status. |
