| Reverse description | Nike, the winged goddess of victory, depicted standing in a biga drawn by two horses galloping to the right. Nike is shown with wings spread, holding a wreath in her outstretched forward hand and a palm branch in her other hand, consistent with her role as a symbol of imperial triumph. The horses are rendered in lively profile with detailed musculature, conveying vigorous forward motion. The regnal year date L ΙΔ (year 14) appears in the upper field above the biga, serving as the primary dating device in the Alexandrian dating system. A ground line runs beneath the horses, and the entire composition is enclosed within a dotted border. |
