| 裏面の説明 | An eagle alighting to the right with wings partially spread, perched upon a maeander (stepped) pattern border that forms the lower register of the design. Two pilei (the caps of the Dioscuri) flank the eagle, each surmounted by a star, with an additional star appearing in the upper right field. The magistrate's legend is divided above and below the central type, identifying the issuing city and the responsible civic official. The overall reverse composition reflects standard Apameian civic bronze iconography of the late Hellenistic period. |

Apameia on the Orontes was among the most strategically vital cities in Seleucid Syria — founded by Seleucus I and named for his Bactrian wife — serving as the dynasty's primary military depot and elephant training ground. By the time this bronze was entering circulation, the Seleucid grip on the region was fracturing under Roman pressure and dynastic civil wars, leaving civic mints like Apameia increasingly responsible for supplying everyday coinage on their own authority. The "Kokos" identifier in the HGC references a magistrate's name appearing on the die, a practice Apameia maintained through the late autonomous period.
