| 背面描述 | A cista mystica depicted centrally in the field, from which a serpent emerges and rears to the left, a common Dionysiac and mystery-cult symbol widely employed on coins of Bithynian cities. The cista is rendered with a latticed or wicker-work body resting on a base. The ethnic legend ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ is distributed around the type in the field, identifying the issuing city of Nicaea. The design is enclosed within a dotted border, and the overall style is consistent with small provincial bronze issues of the Severan period. |

Nicaea was among the most prolific provincial mints of the Severan period, and its civic coinage under Septimius Severus reflects the city's rivalry with neighboring Nicomedia — both cities aggressively courted imperial favor through coin output and monumental construction. The *ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ* ethnic legend asserts civic identity at a moment when that identity carried real political weight in Bithynian municipal competition.
At 2.00 g, this falls at the lighter end of the city's Æ15 output, consistent with documented weight reduction across Bithynian bronzes in the later Severan years.
