Reverse description The goddess Tyche seated left on a throne adorned with a cornucopia-shaped back, wearing a turreted crown and draped robes. She holds a short sceptre in her left hand and extends her right hand forward. The throne rests on a dotted exergual line, beneath which appears the date monogram AΞP (year 161 of the Seleucid Era, corresponding to 152 BC). The royal legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΔΗΜΗΤΡΙΟΥ ΣΩΤΗΡΟΣ is inscribed in two vertical lines to the left of the figure, with a decorative dotted border encircling the entire design. The composition is enclosed within a beaded border.
