| Reverse description | Tyche seated left upon a throne, wearing a kalathos (modius crown) upon her head, holding a rudder in her right hand and a cornucopia in her left arm, symbolic of the city's fortune and maritime prosperity. The figure is rendered in typical provincial Greek style with drapery visible across the lower body. The Greek legend distributed around the field proclaims Nicomedia's status as metropolis and neocorate city, with ΝΕΩΚΟΡ appearing prominently in the lower exergual area. |
