| Reverse description | Demeter standing facing with head turned to the left, her figure draped in the classical manner. In her extended right hand she holds an ear of grain, while her left arm rests upon a long torch that serves as a staff. The ethnic legend ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ appears in the field or around the periphery, identifying the issuing city of Nicaea in Bithynia. The reverse type reflects the agricultural and civic iconography common to Bithynian provincial coinage of the Severan period. |
