| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed, draped and cuirassed bust of Gaius Julius Verus Maximus Caesar facing right, seen from the front, rendered in the provincial style typical of Bithynian civic coinage. The portrait exhibits youthful features consistent with representations of Maximus as Caesar. The circular Greek legend surrounds the effigy, reading Γ ΙΟΥ ΟΥΗ ΜΑΞΙΜΟϹ Κ, identifying the prince by his full titulature. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Nicaea's civic bronze issues under Maximinus Thrax reflect the city's continued autonomy in local coinage during a reign defined by military extraction and senatorial hostility. Maximinus never visited the eastern provinces — he spent his entire rule campaigning on the Rhine and Danube frontiers — meaning these provincial issues served populations who would never have seen the emperor in person. His assassination outside Aquileia in 238, the culmination of the Year of the Six Emperors, ended the series abruptly.
