Excerpt from The Numismatic Journal, Vol. 1: June, 1836; April, 1837
Several cities of antiquity bore the name of Nicæa. Nicæa in Bithynia was founded by Antigonus, the son of Philip of Macedon, who gave it his name; but it was subsequently called Nicaea, by Lysimachus, who bestowed upon it the name of his wife Nicaea, the daughter of Antipater, at her request. Strabo informs us that Nicaea was the metropolis of Bithynia, and that it was situated near the lake Ascanius, and surrounded by fruitful and extensive plains. It is said to have been sixteen stadia in circumference. Stephanus says of this city, "Nicæa is a colony of the Bottiaeori, and was first called Ancora, afterwards Antigonea, and lastly Nicaea, from the wife of Lysimachus." It was renowned in aftertimes for the celebrated council held there. The fabulists, however, have another story, and tell us of a certain nymph, Nicæa, seduced by Bacchus, who built the city in honour of his mistress.
The coins of Roman emperors struck in this city, are numerous and of a variety of types. The following specimens are well-deserving the attention of the numismatist.
