| Reverse description | Turreted Tyche, the civic personification of Nicomedia, depicted standing facing with head turned to the left, holding a small model of a temple in each outstretched hand, referencing the city's twice-granted neocorate status. The figure is rendered in a static, frontal pose characteristic of provincial bronze coinage, with drapery falling to the feet. The Greek legend encircles the reverse field, proclaiming the city's prestigious religious title. |
