| Beschrijving keerzijde | Frontal view of an octastyle temple set upon a two-stepped podium, its eight fluted columns supporting an entablature and triangular pediment; within the pediment, a prominent circular clipeus (shield) is displayed as the central decorative element. The architectural rendering conveys depth through the suggestion of side columns receding into the background. The divided legend ΚΟΙ-ΝΟΝ appears flanking the temple in the field to left and right, while ΒΕΙΘΥΝΙΑϹ is inscribed in the lower exergual area beneath the podium steps. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Koinon of Bithynia — the provincial league of Bithynian cities — held the right to strike bronze coinage honoring the imperial cult, a privilege that made these issues politically significant within the province even if Rome treated them as local small change. Hadrian visited Bithynia at least twice, and his relationship with the region was anything but administrative: it was on the shores of the Bosporus that his companion Antinous drowned in 130 AD, an event that sent the emperor into documented grief and triggered a province-wide deification program.
The league's coinage from this reign circulated primarily within Bithynia-Pontus and rarely traveled far.
