| Reverse description | Seated deity, likely a river god or local divinity, depicted facing left in a relaxed posture, set within a plain field. A Greek inscription in two parts frames the central figure, reading CAMO-CATΩ, identifying the issuing city of Samosata. The design is executed in low relief typical of provincial Commagenian bronze coinage of the late Hellenistic period. |
