| Reverse description | Nike (Victory), winged and draped, stands facing right, inclining forward to inscribe with a stylus upon a large round shield affixed to the trunk of a tall palm tree. The palm fronds fan outward at the top of the composition, serving as a symbol of victory. Nike's outstretched wings and flowing garments are rendered with characteristic provincial dynamism. The two-part Greek legend encircles the design in the outer field, invoking both the Victory of the Romans and the Fortune of the Ephesians. |
