| Reverse description | Octastyle temple facade rendered in frontal elevation, with eight columns supporting a triangular pediment ornamented with a central acroterion. The architectural rendering is characteristic of Bithynian neokoros coinage, referencing Nicomedia's status as a temple-warden city. The abbreviated Greek legend of the city's metropolitan and neokoros titles is disposed around the temple, with the city's name partially visible in the lower field. |
