| Reverse description | Nike, the winged goddess of victory, stands facing left in full figure at the centre of the field. She extends her right hand forward holding a wreath, while her left hand grasps a tall palm frond resting against her shoulder. Her drapery falls in fluid folds, characteristic of Hellenistic-influenced provincial die engraving. The encircling Greek civic legend names the issuing community and surrounds the central type. A dotted border frames the design. |
