Reverse description An agonistic prize table depicted in frontal view, upon which rest two large cylindrical agonistic crowns, each containing a palm branch, symbolising athletic victory at the Commodeia games. The inscription ΚοΜοΔΕΙΑ appears in two lines within the body of the table, referencing the sacred games instituted in honour of Commodus. The entire composition is framed by a laurel wreath border, and the ethnic legend of the Nicaeans runs around the periphery of the field.
