| Reverse description | Nemesis standing facing, head turned to the left, clad in a long chiton reaching to her feet. Her right arm is bent at the elbow with the hand raised to pluck the folds of the chiton at the neckline, a gesture symbolizing divine retribution. In her lowered left hand she holds a bridle or cubit-rule. At her feet to the lower left lies a wheel, an additional attribute of Nemesis symbolizing the turning of fate. The ethnic legend ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ appears in the field, identifying the issuing city of Nicaea. |
