| 背面描述 | Diademed and draped bust of Homer facing right, portrayed as an elderly bearded figure in the conventional idealized Hellenistic tradition used for the legendary poet. The bust is rendered with a diadem and draped garment, emphasizing the veneration of Homer as a cultural hero particularly associated with Nicaea's claim to be his birthplace. The reverse legend encircles the bust in Greek, naming Homer and asserting the civic identity of the Nicaeans. |

Nicaea's civic bronze coinage under Commodus drew heavily on the city's claim to be Homer's birthplace — a distinction also contested by Smyrna, Chios, Colophon, and several others. The competition was civic propaganda in the most literal sense, with cities across the Greek east minting Homer's image precisely to assert that claim against rivals.
The reference to IV.1#5527 places this within the Recueil Général de Monnaies Grecques d'Asie Mineure corpus.
