| 背面描述 | An eagle stands facing with wings spread wide, its head turned to the right, depicted in the act of grappling with a serpent coiled around its body — a powerful and well-known type employed on the civic bronze coinage of Nicomedia. The bold, deeply struck design fills the flan, with the eagle's talons gripping the writhing serpent in a dynamic composition. A circular Greek legend surrounds the type, referencing Nicomedia's status as neokoros metropolis of Bithynia. The reverse type alludes to the city's divine associations, likely connected to the cult of Zeus or Apollo. |

Nicomedia held the title of metropolis of Bithynia, a status it contested bitterly with Nicaea for generations — the Greek abbreviations worked into this coin's reverse legend are a direct assertion of that civic primacy, not mere convention. The Commodan period saw these inter-city rivalries peak, with both Nicomedia and Nicaea petitioning Rome repeatedly for honorific titles, each new grant reflected almost immediately in local bronze coinage.
