| Reverse description | Zeus enthroned to the left, his draped figure seated upon an ornate throne with footstool visible beneath. In his extended right hand he holds a patera, while his left hand grasps a long vertical sceptre rising to the upper field. The deity is rendered in the classical Hellenistic tradition familiar to Bithynian civic coinage. The ethnic legend of Nicaea is inscribed in the right field within a border, identifying the issuing city. |
