| Reverse description | Eagle with wings spread, standing three-quarters facing to right, perched upon a thunderbolt depicted horizontally across the lower field. Two six-petalled star rosettes flank the eagle symmetrically in the left and right fields. A Greek legend in two lines is inscribed in the lower exergual area, giving the names of the magistrates Menodotos and Sillon, while the ethnic legend of the city of Akmoneia appears partially along the upper border of the coin. The composition is bold and well-centred, typical of the civic bronze coinage of Phrygia during the late Attalid period. |
