| Reverse description | A cista mystica depicted in the centre of the field, from which a serpent emerges and rises to the left, a type associated with the Dionysiac mysteries and widely employed on Bithynian provincial coinage. The ethnic legend ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ encircles the type, identifying the issuing city of Nicaea. The composition is compact, occupying most of the flan, with a plain border. |
