| Reverse description | The reverse features the civic legend of Nicomedia inscribed in five lines within a laurel wreath, the wreath tied at the base with a decorative bow. The inscription proclaims the city's honorific status as twice neocorate, a prestigious temple-wardenship title granted by Rome. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border, typical of provincial bronze coinage of the Severan period. |
