| Reverse description | Nike, the winged goddess of victory, standing in a biga (two-horse chariot) racing to the right. Nike is depicted holding a palm branch in one hand and a wreath in the other, emblems of victory and imperial triumph. The horses are shown in vigorous motion, their forelegs raised. The regnal year legend appears in the upper field. The composition follows the standard Alexandrian numismatic convention for Nike-in-biga reverse types under the Antonine dynasty. |
