| Reverse description | Homonoia, personification of concord and civic harmony, depicted standing facing with head turned to the left, draped in a long chiton and himation. In her right hand she holds a patera extended for libation, and in her left arm she cradles a large cornucopia, emblems of abundance and divine favour. The ethnic legend ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ arcs around the field, identifying the issuing city of Nicaea in Bithynia. The reverse type reflects the common civic ideology of homonoia shared among Bithynian cities during the Severan period. |
