| Reverse description | Standing figure of Apollo Citharoedus depicted in full frontal or three-quarter pose, clad in the long ceremonial robe (chiton) of a kitharode. The god holds a lyre (kithara) in his left hand and a plectrum in his raised right hand, attributes emblematic of his role as divine patron of music and the arts. The reverse legend COS III appears in the field, referencing Hadrian's third consulship. The design reflects the strong Hellenistic artistic traditions of the Phrygian city of Hierapolis. |
