| Reverse description | Turreted Tyche seated left upon a rocky outcrop, holding a reed in her hand, symbolizing the city's prosperity; at her feet, the river god Sangaris stands to the right with right hand raised in salutation. The civic legend ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ is inscribed in the field, identifying the issuing city of Nicaea. The composition reflects the standard iconographic program of Bithynian civic bronzes of the Severan period. |
