| Reverse description | Turreted bust of Tyche-Fortuna, the personified goddess of Antioch, facing right, wearing a distinctive mural crown with multiple towers rising prominently above her head, characteristic of the city's civic coinage tradition. The bust is rendered in a competent provincial style with visible drapery at the shoulder. The city ethnic legend ANTIOCHIA is distributed in the field around the bust, split to either side. The beaded border frames the design, consistent with hammered bronze coinage of the eastern Roman provinces. |
