Reverse description Hermes standing left with legs crossed in a contrapposto pose, depicted nude save for a chlamys draped over the right shoulder and wearing krepides (winged boots). The deity holds a caduceus (serpent-entwined staff) in his right hand. The composition is characteristic of the Nicopolis ad Istrum municipal bronze coinage under the consular legate Novius Rufus, with the magistrate's name and civic ethnic legend distributed around the figure in two lines.
