| Reverse description | Two togated figures, identified as Caracalla and Geta, stand facing one another in a scene of concordia, clasping right hands in a dextrarum iunctio. Between them stands a table upon which rests an agonistic crown, alluding to the Severan Philadelphian games celebrated at Nicaea. The composition is rendered in the typical provincial civic style, with the Greek legend distributed across the field and border. |
