| Reverse description | Athena depicted standing in full figure facing left, clad in a long chiton and aegis, holding an upright spear in her right hand and resting a large round shield on the ground with her left. The goddess is rendered in the classical provincial style, with drapery folds visible in the field. The encircling Greek legend ΙΕΡΑϹ ΝΕΙΚΟΠΟΛΕΩϹ, meaning 'of sacred Nicopolis', runs around the periphery of the flan, affirming the civic authority of the issuing mint. The coin's surfaces show a green-brown patina consistent with prolonged burial. |
