| Reverse description | A triad of healing deities occupies the reverse field in a symmetrical composition characteristic of Nicaean provincial bronzes. To the left, Hygieia stands facing right, extending a patera toward a serpent; at centre, the cloaked child deity Telesphorus stands frontally; to the right, Asclepius stands facing left, leaning upon his serpent-entwined staff. The ethnic legend ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ appears in the field, identifying the issuing city. |
