| Reverse description | A winged or wingless female figure, identified as Nike Apteros (Wingless Victory), advances to the left clad in a chiton with a diploïs (double fold of drapery). She grasps the ends of her billowing veil, which is inflated behind her by the wind, creating a dynamic, arching form above the figure. The composition conveys movement and divine grace, a motif common to provincial Greek coinage of the Severan period. The reverse legend naming the Bithynian Hadrianians is disposed around the field. |
