| Reverse description | Nemesis, the goddess of retribution and divine balance, stands facing left in full figure, robed in a long chiton. Her right hand reaches up to pluck or draw the fabric of her garment near the neckline, a gesture conventional to her iconography symbolizing the warding off of hubris, while her left hand holds a bridle or cubit rule. The figure is rendered in the typical provincial style of Bithynian coinage, set within a circular Greek civic legend. |
