| Reverse description | Nike, the winged goddess of victory, standing in a biga — a two-horse chariot — driven to the left. She is depicted holding a victor's wreath in her outstretched right hand and a palm branch in her left, both attributes emblematic of triumph and martial success. The horses are shown in vigorous motion, with the chariot rendered in profile. The regnal date legend appears in the upper field in Greek characters, a standard dating convention of Alexandrian provincial coinage. The overall composition, though worn, retains its dynamic quality characteristic of the Hadrianic Alexandrian series. |
