| Reverse description | Standing figure, identified as the city's patron deity or Nike, depicted in a dynamic striding pose facing left, wearing a short chiton and holding attributes consistent with Hellenistic civic iconography. The Greek legend ΣΙΝΩΠΗΣ is distributed across the field in two lines, with ΣΙΝ to the left and ΩΠΗΣ to the right of the central figure. The overall composition is characteristic of the late autonomous bronze coinage of Sinope, rendered in a vigorous if somewhat worn Hellenistic engraving style. |
