| Reverse description | The emperor, depicted in full military attire including cuirass and paludamentum, stands facing with head turned to the left. His left hand rests upon a long spear held vertically, while his right arm may hold an additional attribute. The composition is typical of provincial honorific reverse types celebrating the imperial cult and Nicomedia's privileged status as a twice-neocorate city. The reverse legend encircles the field, proclaiming the city's distinction. |
