| Beschrijving keerzijde | Nude Harpocrates standing left, raising his right hand to his mouth in the characteristic gesture of silence, and holding a cornucopia in his left arm. The figure is rendered in the Hellenistic tradition, reflecting the syncretic religious milieu of the region. The ethnic legend of the issuing city is inscribed in the field. The reverse type reflects the strong Egyptian religious influences present in Bithynian provincial coinage of the Antonine era. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Nicaea's civic bronze issues under Antoninus Pius reflect the city's deep investment in Hellenic identity during a reign notable for its administrative stability and lack of military crisis. The city had been refounded by Lysimachus in the early third century BC and named for his wife — or, in rival accounts, for his victory at the Battle of Ipsus — and its coinage consistently asserted that Macedonian prestige well into the imperial period.
