| Reverse description | Nike, the winged goddess of victory, depicted in dynamic flight to the right, her wings fully extended. In her raised right hand she holds a victor's wreath, while her left hand carries a long palm branch, both attributes symbolizing imperial triumph. The regnal year is inscribed across the fields in Greek numerals, with a star appearing in the right field as an additional decorative or symbolic element. The composition is rendered in the compact, schematic style typical of late third-century Alexandrian tetradrachms. |
