| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Macrinus facing right, portrayed three-quarter view from the rear, with paludamentum visible over the left shoulder. The emperor's effigy is rendered in the typical provincial portraiture style of the early third century AD. A Greek imperial legend encircles the bust, running along the coin's periphery. The flan is irregular in shape and bears a suspension hole pierced through the upper field, indicating secondary use as a pendant. Surface shows heavy wear and dark patination consistent with extended ancient circulation. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Dikaiosyne (personification of Justice) standing facing with head turned to the left, holding a pair of scales in her raised right hand and a cornucopia in her left arm. The figure is rendered in the conventional allegorical style common to provincial civic coinage of Bithynia during the Severan period. The ethnic legend ΝΙΚΑΙΕΩΝ appears in the field or along the periphery, identifying the issuing city of Nicaea. The reverse field shows significant wear, with the relief of the figure substantially smoothed. The composition reflects the civic pride and Hellenistic iconographic traditions of the Bithynian mint. |
