(Translation: Emperor Caesar Gaius Pescennius Niger Just Augustus)
Reverse description Nike, the winged goddess of victory, striding in dynamic pose to the left across the field, her drapery rendered in flowing lines consistent with provincial Bithynian workmanship. She extends her right hand forward to present a victor's wreath, while her left hand bears a tall palm branch resting against her shoulder. The figure is set within an undecorated field framed by the civic legend disposed around the border of the flan.
