| Obverse description | Laureate, draped bust of Emperor Antoninus Pius facing right, rendered in the provincial style characteristic of Syrian civic coinage. The emperor's portrait displays his customary beard and laureate wreath, with drapery visible at the shoulder truncation. A Greek imperial legend surrounds the effigy in the field, partially preserved due to the coin's irregular flan. The die work reflects the local engraving tradition of the Laodicean mint. |
