| Reverse description | A galley with six rowers depicted in motion to the left, with two military standards erected at the stern and two octastyle temples visible in the background, likely representing the neokorate temples of Nicomedia. The composition celebrates the city's prestigious double neokorate status and its maritime character as a major port on the Propontis. The reverse legend in Greek encircles the central device, proclaiming Nicomedia's distinction as twice neokoros. |
