背面描述	Zeus standing left, his right hand extended and holding an eagle, his left hand resting upon a tall sceptre. The figure is rendered in the conventional civic style of Aeolian bronze coinage of the late first century BC. The magistrate's name ΔΙΦΙΛΟϹ appears in the field as the reverse legend, identifying the local civic official responsible for the issue.

附加信息	Aegae was a minor Aeolian city of little political weight, but its magistrates understood the value of attaching the emperor's name to their local bronze. The magistrate Diphilos — named on this issue — was one of several civic officials across the Smyrna conventus who sponsored coinage in Augustus's name during the decade following Actium, a period when Greek cities were actively competing to demonstrate loyalty through exactly this kind of small-denomination civic output. At 13 mm and under 2.5 grams, these pieces were the fractional workhorses of local market exchange, and survival rates are low.
