| Beschrijving keerzijde | Apollo standing nude, facing with head turned to the right, his right arm raised and his left hand holding a laurel branch. The god leans against a Delphic tripod around which a serpent is coiled, a motif closely associated with the oracular sanctuary at Delphi and emblematic of Nysa's religious connections. Behind Apollo, a lyre rests upon a column, further emphasizing the deity's divine attributes. The ethnic legend ΝΥϹΑΕΩΝ encircles the design, identifying the issuing city. The composition is typical of the Apolline reverse types employed by the civic bronzes of Nysa in the Conventus of Ephesus. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Nysa-Scythopolis, situated in the Maeander valley of Lydia, was one of the more prolific civic minting authorities under the Ephesian conventus, yet issues attributable specifically to the brief reign of Maximinus Thrax remain comparatively scarce. His three-year rule generated fewer provincial bronzes across Asia Minor than virtually any other third-century emperor — a product of his near-constant military campaigning on the Rhine and Danube frontiers, which kept him physically absent from the eastern provinces and reduced the ceremonial impetus for civic coinage honoring the emperor.
