| Reverse description | Athena Nikephoros seated left upon a throne, her body draped, resting her left arm upon a large round shield set upon the ground at her side. She extends her right hand to support a small Nike who faces left and holds a wreath. A long diagonal spear reclines in the background behind the throne. To the inner left field, an eagle stands right atop a thunderbolt. The royal legend is arranged in two lines flanking the enthroned figure, with the ethnic in the exergual area. The composition follows the standard Lysimachean reverse type employed across multiple mint cities. |
