| Reverse description | Nike, the goddess of victory, advancing to right in full stride, extending her right arm to place a laurel wreath upon a trophy of arms standing at right. Control symbols or monograms appear in the field to the left and right of Nike, varying by die variety. The royal legend is disposed across the field in two lines of Greek script. The composition is characteristic of the victorious dynastic imagery employed by the early Seleucid coinage at Susa. |
