| Reverse description | Frontal view of a hexastyle or octastyle temple set on a raised podium with steps, depicted with a prominent triangular pediment surmounted by acroteria. The columns are rendered in perspective, with the interior of the cella visible between the central shafts. This neocorate temple imagery references Nicomedia's twice-granted honor of establishing an imperial cult sanctuary. The circular Greek legend surrounds the design within a dotted border. |
