| Reverse description | Confronted busts of Sarapis, draped and wearing the modius (kalathos) headdress, facing right, and Isis, draped and wearing her characteristic crown, facing left; between them in the lower field, a small bust of Horus facing right. This syncretic Egyptian divine triad reflects the widespread veneration of these deities throughout the eastern Roman provinces. The reverse legend surrounds the figural composition, asserting Nicomedia's prestigious status as a twice-neocorate city. |
