| Reverse description | Nike, the goddess of victory, depicted standing in a galloping biga (two-horse chariot) advancing to the left, her figure shown in dynamic motion. She holds a palm branch in her extended hand, emblematic of victory and triumph. The horses are rendered in energetic gallop, their forelegs raised. The ethnic legend ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ appears in the lower field or exergue, identifying the civic issuing authority of Nicaea in Bithynia. |
