| Beschrijving keerzijde | Athena, draped, seated left upon a throne, holding a small Nike figure in her extended right hand; a large round shield rests against the left side of the seat. The composition is characteristic of the Pergamene civic coinage, reflecting the city's veneration of Athena as its patron deity. The encircling Greek legend references the strategos Nikomedes and identifies Pergamum as a city holding the rank of neokoros for the second time. The exergue area and field are plain. |

The ΕΠΙ ϹΤΡ legend names the strategos Nikomedes as presiding magistrate — a civic official whose name appearing on bronze coinage signals Pergamum's insistence on local administrative visibility even under imperial oversight. The ΝΕΟΚΟΡΩΝ Β title, indicating Pergamum's status as twice-temple-warden of the imperial cult, was hard-won and fiercely defended; the city had held the first Asian neokorate since the reign of Augustus, and the second was granted under Trajan.
The 175–176 dating places this issue in the aftermath of Avidius Cassius's failed revolt in Syria, during which several eastern cities had to publicly reaffirm loyalty to Marcus Aurelius.
