| Reverse description | Nike, the winged goddess of victory, stands erect in a two-horse chariot (biga) advancing to the right, depicted in the customary provincial Greek style. She holds a victor's wreath in her extended right hand and grasps the reins with her left, her drapery billowing behind her. The scene is enclosed within a dotted border, with the civic Greek legend of Amisus distributed around the field referencing the city's free status and the local era date ϹΞΖ (year 267, corresponding to 235–236 AD). |
