| 裏面の説明 | Sarapis standing facing with head turned to the left, his right hand raised over a lighted altar set before him, and holding a long sceptre in his left hand. The god wears the characteristic modius (kalathos) headdress and long draped robes, rendered in the Hellenistic tradition common to provincial bronzes of Bithynia. The ethnic legend ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ is inscribed in the field, denoting the civic authority of Nicaea. |

Nicaea's civic bronze issues under Caracalla were produced during a period when the city was actively competing with Nicomedia for provincial primacy in Bithynia — a rivalry expressed partly through the volume and ambition of local coin production. Nicaea held the title of "most illustrious" and leveraged imperial portrait coinage as a public assertion of that status.
The broad fabric typical of Nicaean bronzes at this module frequently results in off-center strikes, making well-centered examples harder to source than mintage volume alone would suggest.
