| Reverse description | Two upwardly coiling serpents occupy the central field, their heads flanking a hexastyle round temple surmounted by a standing statue of Athena, referencing the local cult and civic identity of Laodikeia. To the right, a winged caduceus is prominently displayed as a symbol of Roman authority and commercial connectivity. The legend in both Latin and Greek characters distributes across the field, recording the names of the Roman magistrate and the Phrygian civic authority alongside the issuing official Attalos son of Demetrios. |
