| Beschrijving keerzijde | Asclepius, the god of medicine, rendered as a standing draped male figure turned to the left, holding a serpent-entwined staff (the rod of Asclepius) in his right hand. The figure is depicted in a calm, frontal pose with robes falling in naturalistic folds to the ground. The ethnic legend ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ is distributed around the periphery of the reverse field, identifying the issuing city of Nicaea in Bithynia. The style is consistent with provincial bronze coinage of the Severan and post-Severan period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Philip I's reign coincided with Rome's Millennial celebrations of 248 AD, and civic mints across the eastern provinces — Nicaea among them — were unusually active during these years, producing bronze issues that circulated alongside the imperial coinage without competing with it. Nicaea had been one of the most prolific civic minting authorities in Bithynia for decades, and its output under Philip reflects that institutional continuity rather than any special imperial mandate.
