| Reverse description | Eagle displayed, wings spread, standing facing with head turned to right, grasping a wreath in its beak; no tail feathers depicted, consistent with the regional Syrian eagle type. Between the eagle's legs, a small tetrastyle shrine or naiskos with a pediment is rendered in the field, likely representing a local cult sanctuary. The Greek legend is distributed across the field. The composition reflects the standard reverse type employed on provincial bronze and billon coinage of Edessa under Macrinus. |
