| Beschrijving keerzijde | A distyle temple set upon a podium of two steps, rendered in frontal view, houses the Capitoline Triad. Zeus stands centrally facing the viewer, his right hand resting upon a tall sceptre; to his left stands Hera, turned slightly right, her left hand resting on a long sceptre; to his right stands Athena, turned slightly left, crowning Zeus with her right hand and holding an aphlaston in her left. The temple pediment features a sacrificing Genius, while Victories are depicted on the raking cornices and at the apex. The reverse legend is divided across the field, reading ΚΟΙ-ΝΟΝ ΒΕΙΘΥΝΙΑϹ. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Koinon of Bithynia was a provincial assembly — a league of cities granted the right to issue coinage in honor of the imperial cult, not a mint acting on Rome's direct authority. Hadrian had particular ties to the region: his beloved Antinous drowned in the Nile in 130 AD, but earlier journeys through Bithynia shaped his philhellenic program of urban patronage that made koina like this one politically useful to both parties. Provincial bronze of this type circulated regionally without ever entering Rome's accounting.
