| Obverse description | Draped bust of Artemis facing right, with a quiver visible over the shoulder, her hair arranged in a naturalistic style characteristic of Hellenistic provincial coinage. The legend ΑΙΖΑΝΕΙΤΩΝ ΜΗΝΟΓΕΝΟΥϹ (of the Aezanites, of Menogenes) is distributed around the bust, partially visible in the field. The portrait is rendered in a somewhat schematic provincial style typical of Phrygian civic coinage of the mid-first century AD. |

| Reverse description | Draped bust of the personified Senate (ϹΥΝΚΛΗΤΟϹ) facing right, portrayed with idealized male features and rendered in the manner of a divine effigy, consistent with the honorific title ΘΕΟϹ (divine). The legend ΘΕΟϹ ϹΥΝΚΛΗΤΟϹ (the divine Senate) is distributed around the bust in Greek characters. The style reflects the Hellenistic tradition of deifying Roman institutions in the eastern provinces during the Julio-Claudian period. |
