| 正面描述 | Laureate head of Asklepios facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic style with curling hair and a short beard partially visible; the laurel wreath is depicted with fine detail, and the portrait exhibits a serene, idealized divine character typical of Pergamene bronze coinage of the period. The field is plain, with no legend or additional devices. |

| 背面描述 | Serpent of Asklepios coiled around an omphalos-headed staff (kerykeion), the snake's head raised and facing right at the top of the composition, its body elegantly entwined around the shaft in multiple coils. The Greek letter beta (Β) appears in the left field, likely serving as a magistrate's mark or mint control letter. A dotted border frames the reverse field. |

Pergamon's bronze coinage of this period was municipal rather than imperial — produced to serve local market exchange under the Attalid dynasty, whose kings styled themselves as defenders of Hellenic civilization against the Galatian raids that had destabilized much of western Anatolia. When Attalos III died in 133 BC without an heir, he famously bequeathed the entire kingdom to Rome, making this issue among the last autonomous bronzes struck before Pergamon became the nucleus of the new Roman province of Asia.
