| 裏面の説明 | Nike, the goddess of victory, depicted in a biga (two-horse chariot) charging to the right, the horses shown in full gallop with dynamic forward momentum. Nike is rendered in flowing drapery, guiding the chariot with outstretched arms in a composition common to Roman provincial coinage of the Hadrianic era. The reverse legend naming the mint city of Nicopolis appears in the exergue or field in Greek characters. |

Nicopolis ad Isthmon — not to be confused with the more famous Nicopolis ad Actium in Epirus — was refounded or substantially reorganized under Hadrian, whose lengthy tour of Greece beginning in 124 AD brought exceptional imperial attention to Achaean civic life. Local bronze issues of this type reflect the renewal of civic minting privileges that accompanied his philhellenic program, during which Hadrian was initiated into the Eleusinian Mysteries and granted the title "Olympios" by Athens.
The city's name derives from a Neronian-era foundation commemorating victory at the Isthmian Games.
