| Reverse description | The inscription ΑΚΤΙΑ displayed in the field within an open laurel or olive wreath, tied at the base. The wreath frames the legend on three sides in a manner typical of Actian Games festival coinage issued by Nicopolis. The design is simple and epigraphic in character, with the wreath rendered in fine detail showing individual leaves and berries. This type commemorates the Actia, the prestigious quinquennial games re-established by Augustus at Nicopolis to celebrate his victory at the Battle of Actium. |
