| 背面描述 | Standing female deity, most likely Tyche or a local city goddess, depicted in full-length frontal or three-quarter view, draped in a long chiton and himation. The figure holds attributes in her hands consistent with civic personifications on provincial Decapolis coinage. The surrounding Greek legend reads ΝΥCΑ Η ΚΑΙ CΚΥΘΟΠΟΛΙC with the date letters L ΓΡ (year 103 of the Pompeian era, corresponding to 39/40 AD) visible in the field. The composition is characteristic of Nysa-Scythopolis civic bronze issues struck under Roman imperial authority. The reverse field shows some die wear consistent with heavy circulation. |

Nysa-Scythopolis, located in the northern Jordan Valley, was one of the few cities in the region to mint bronze coinage under Caligula. This issue dates to year 3 of Caligula's reign, corresponding to 39/40 AD — a period when the emperor's behavior had become erratic enough that several eastern cities were navigating delicate diplomatic ground with Rome. The city's dual name reflects its layered identity: a Hellenistic foundation grafted onto an older Semitic settlement, Caligula's name appearing on civic bronze being less an honor than a political necessity.
