| Reverse description | Standing figure of Nike depicted facing left in full length, her outstretched right hand extending a wreath and her left hand holding an uncertain object, possibly a palm branch or stylis. The winged goddess is rendered in a schematic Hellenistic style consistent with Nabataean bronze issues attributed to Aretas II. The figure occupies the central field, which is otherwise plain and devoid of legend or border decoration. Patination and wear obscure finer details of the drapery and wings. |
