| Reverse description | Nike, the winged goddess of victory, advances to the left in full stride, her drapery billowing behind her in the wind to create a dynamic sense of movement. She wears a stephane and is depicted with large, prominently rendered wings spread to the right. In her extended left hand she grasps a long upright sceptre or staff, while her right arm is drawn back. The two-line Greek royal legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ above and ΑΜΥΝΤΟΥ in the lower field flanks the figure on either side, identifying the issuing authority as King Amyntas of Galatia. |
