| Reverse description | A female figure, likely a personification of Nikaia or a local deity, stands facing with head turned to the left. In her extended right hand she holds a laurel branch, while her left hand rests upon a long sceptre. The figure is rendered in the provincial Greek style characteristic of Bithynian civic coinage, with drapery falling in stylised folds. The ethnic legend ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ is disposed around the type in the field. |
