| Reverse description | Three goats in animated postures occupy the central field, arranged in a lively group suggestive of play or interaction; the scene is set on a ground line. The ethnic legend ΒΙΘΥΝΙΕΩΝ is distributed in the field above and below the group, referencing the civic identity of Bithynium Claudiopolis. This pastoral type, evoking the goat as a local symbol, is characteristic of the autonomous bronze coinage of the Bithynian cities under the Severan dynasty. |
