| Reverse description | Mount Argaeus, the sacred volcanic peak of Cappadocia, depicted as a conical mountain set upon an altar or base, surmounted by the standing figure of Helios facing left. Helios holds a globe in his right hand and a long sceptre in his left, symbolising celestial dominion. The reverse type is emblematic of the Caesarea mint and served as a powerful religious and regional symbol of Cappadocian identity under Roman provincial authority. The Greek legend ΔΗΜΑΡΧ ΕΞ ΥΠΑΤ Γ appears in the field, recording Hadrian's tribunician power and his third consulship, providing a precise dating criterion for the issue. |
