| Beschrijving keerzijde | Victoria (Nike) personified, standing left, extending a wreath over a lighted altar with her right hand while holding a long palm branch in her left. The figure is depicted in a flowing garment, rendered in the provincial Roman artistic tradition. The colonial abbreviation legend is distributed in the field, identifying the issuing colony. The reverse type reflects the imperial victory iconography commonly employed by Roman provincial mints of Achaea during the Antonine era. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Corinth's provincial bronze coinage under Marcus Aurelius was issued by a city still carrying the administrative weight of its Roman colonial refounding — Julius Caesar established Colonia Laus Iulia Corinthiensis in 44 BC on the ruins of the Greek city Lucius Mummius had razed a century earlier. The abbreviation C L I COR in the reference encodes that colonial identity directly: it had outlasted two centuries of Roman rule and was still how the city identified itself on coin.
Provincial issues of this diameter from Achaea rarely circulated far beyond the Peloponnese.
