Reverse description Front elevation of an octastyle temple depicted with eight columns resting on a stepped podium (krepidoma), the pediment ornamented with a central globe or dot. The architectural rendering is detailed, showing the columns in perspective and a triangular pediment above. The temple likely represents the imperial cult sanctuary at Nicomedia, referencing the city's triple neocorate status. The Greek legend encircles the design, with the inscription divided around the temple type.
