| Reverse description | Eagle standing left with head turned right and wings spread open, perched upon a bucranium (bull's head) facing left. The eagle, a powerful symbol of imperial authority and of Zeus, is rendered in the provincial Greek style common to Bithynian civic bronzes. The abbreviated mint legend is distributed in the field around the central type. The bucranium device below the eagle is a characteristic reverse type associated with Caesarea Germanica coinage. |
