| Obverse lettering | ΑΥΤ ΚΑΙϹΑΡ ΑΝΤΩΝΙΝΟϹ (Translation: Emperor Caesar Antoninus) |
| Reverse description | The nude eponymous hero Stolos stands facing, his head slightly turned, wearing a rostral crown adorned with ship prows as a symbol of naval prowess. His right arm is extended outward in a gesture of address or offering, while his left hand holds a long rudder. At his feet to the lower left, a small ship's prow is depicted as an additional naval attribute. The composition reflects Nicomedia's civic pride and maritime identity, with the encircling legend proclaiming the city's status. |
