The type appears fairly well on coins of the Imperial period rare; It is most similar to ours on a coin from Ilion (Overbeck Münz- plate IV, 24; see also 25). A distinctive feature of the coin of Nicopolis is that before the altar to which God still stands; in his hanging left hand he holds many easily a grape or something similar. — Apollo appears very similar in posture on some coins from Tomis (e.g. plate XIV, 30), although the support of the 1st arm is there is missing and the tripod stands in front of the god.
