The ethnic legend ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ is distributed around the field, identifying the issuing city of Nicaea. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Nicaea's civic bronze coinage under Maximinus Thrax occupies an awkward political moment: the emperor was never recognized as legitimate by the Senate, yet provincial mints across Bithynia continued striking in his name without interruption. Maximinus never visited the eastern provinces — he spent his entire reign campaigning on the Rhine and Danube frontiers before his troops murdered him outside Aquileia in 238.
The ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ ethnic confirms civic, not imperial, mint authority — Nicaea administered its own bronze production throughout this period.
