| Reverse description | A tall cult statue of Aphrodite Stratonikis, depicted frontally and standing within a wreath of laurel or olive branches that frames the entire reverse field. The idol appears in an archaic xoanon style, rendered in schematic form with a columnar body and outstretched attributes. A Greek legend naming the city and the issuing magistrate is inscribed within or alongside the wreath border, divided on either side of the central type. |
