| Obverse lettering | ΠΟΥ ΛΙΚ ΟΥΑΛΕΡΙΑΝΟϹ ϹΕ (Translation: Publius Licinius Valerianus Augustus) |
| Reverse description | Emperor Valerian, depicted in full military dress, stands facing left at center, holding a long sceptre in his left hand and extending his right hand toward Gallienus, who stands to his left holding a spear. To the far right, a togate male figure — tentatively identified as Saloninus — stands facing left, possibly holding a baton or short staff. An altar may be depicted at the feet of the figures, reinforcing the dynastic and religious character of the scene. The reverse legend ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ in Greek identifies the issuing city of Nicaea in Bithynia. |
