| Reverse description | Athena, the patron deity of Nicaea, depicted standing facing with head turned to the left. The goddess holds an owl in her extended right hand, a symbol of wisdom and her divine attribute, while her left arm rests upon a large round shield set on the ground beside her. An upright spear stands behind her. The civic legend ΝΕΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ appears in the field, affirming the coin's origin as a civic issue of the city of Nicaea in Bithynia. |
