| Reverse description | Athena Nikephoros seated left on a throne, wearing a crested helmet and chiton, her right hand outstretched to receive a small Nike who proffers a wreath, her left hand resting on a large round shield propped against the throne. A long spear leans diagonally behind her. The legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ to the right and ΛΥΣΙΜΑΧΟΥ to the left frame the central figure in vertical columns. The mint monogram BY (for Byzantion) appears in the field below the throne, accompanied by a control symbol. In the exergue, an anchor symbol identifies the Byzantion mint, while a chi-rho monogram appears as a secondary control mark in the left field. |
