Beschrijving keerzijde Nemesis standing facing, clad in a long chiton with a peplos drawn up over her head as a veil, her gaze directed downward in solemn aspect. Her right hand draws the veil across her face in the characteristic gesture of the goddess, while her left hand holds a measuring rod or cubit. At her feet lies a wheel, the principal attribute of Nemesis symbolising fate and retribution. The reverse legend ϹΑΜΙΩΝ in Greek characters encircles the field, attributing the issue to the city of Samos.

Aanvullende informatie

Samos sat within the Milesian conventus — the Roman judicial circuit centered on Miletus — and continued striking civic bronze well into the joint reign of Valerian I and Gallienus, even as the empire fractured under the pressure of simultaneous barbarian incursions and the catastrophic capture of Valerian by Shapur I in 260 AD. That capture effectively ended the joint reign and, with it, most provincial civic coinage of this type. Pieces attributable to the later end of this window are accordingly scarcer than their early-reign counterparts.
