| Reverse description | Athena standing facing, head turned to the left, clad in helmet and aegis, holding a patera in her extended right hand over a lighted altar at her side, and grasping a large round shield and upright spear in her left. The composition is typical of the Nicaean civic reverse types of the early third century, with the goddess rendered in a static, frontal pose. The ethnic legend ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ is inscribed in the field around the figure. |
