| Reverse description | Emperor Commodus depicted standing, facing, with head turned to the left, dressed in military attire. In his right hand he extends a small Nike (Victory figure) atop a globe, while his left hand holds a vertical spear. Beneath him, a seated captive is shown in a submissive posture, symbolizing Roman victory over barbarian enemies. The ethnic legend ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ (of the Nicaeans) arcs around the reverse field, identifying the issuing city. |
