| Reverse description | Nike, the winged goddess of victory, depicted in three-quarter view driving a swift biga to the right at full gallop; she holds the kentron (goad) in her right hand and the reins in her left, her wings spread behind her. The two horses are shown in vigorous motion with forelegs raised. The three-line Greek legend is distributed around the field, identifying the issuing city and the magistrate responsible for the issue. The composition is dynamic and characteristic of late Hellenistic civic coinage from Ionia. |
