| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate head of Emperor Elagabalus facing right, depicted with youthful features consistent with his early reign portraiture. The effigy is rendered in low to medium relief typical of provincial Bithynian coinage of the early third century AD. The circular legend surrounds the portrait in Greek characters, reading Μ ΑΥΡ ΑΝΤΩΝΙΝΟϹ ΑΥΓ (Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustus). The coin surface shows natural green and brown patination with some granularity in the fields. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Tyche seated left on a high-backed throne, wearing a kalathos (modius-style crown) upon her head, a divine personification of the city's fortune. She holds a long torch in one hand and corn ears (wheat stalks) in the other, symbolizing abundance and civic prosperity. The composition is characteristic of Nicaean civic reverse types under the Severan dynasty. The ethnic legend ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ (of the Nicaeans) appears in the field or around the central device, identifying the issuing city. The overall style reflects the provincial engraving tradition of Bithynian mint workshops of the early third century AD. |
