| Reverse description | Fortuna Ephesia depicted standing facing left in full figure, wearing a long chiton and himation, holding a ship's rudder in her extended right hand and a cornucopia in her left arm, the two attributes symbolising fortune and abundance. The figure stands in a dignified, frontal pose with slight contrapposto, rendered in the provincial artistic tradition of Ionian coinage. The reverse legend FORTVN EPHESIA flanks the deity in the field, invoking the protective fortune of the city of Ephesus. The whole design is enclosed within a beaded border consistent with the obverse. |
