Reverse description An eagle, wings spread and raised, stands facing right in a dynamic combative posture, engaging an erect serpent rearing up before it. The bird's talons grip the ground as it grapples with the coiling serpent, a motif associated with Nicomedia's civic iconography. The reverse legend, divided between the upper field and the lower exergual area, identifies the city as metropolis and neokoros. A beaded border encircles the entire design.
