Laureate and cuirassed bust right / Nike, holding wreath and reins, driving galloping triga right; Γ (mark of value) below. Burrer, MA–G 31 var.

From the BCD Collection.
The engraver appears to have run out of room in the exergue, which required him to move the final "N" of "KOINON"slightly into the field.
