| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, cuirassed bust of Emperor Commodus facing right, depicted with characteristic youthful features. The obverse legend in Greek characters is disposed around the bust in the field. The coin bears a beaded border visible along the upper rim. The engraving reflects the provincial die-cutting style typical of Bithynian civic coinage of the Antonine period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Nude, bearded Heracles standing to the right, his right hand resting on his hip in a relaxed contrapposto pose. His left arm is draped with the Nemean lion skin, and he leans upon his club, which rests upright on a rocky ground base. The composition emphasises the hero's musculature and divine strength, a motif well suited to the imperial propaganda of Commodus, who identified himself with Heracles. The ethnic legend ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ appears in the field. |
