| Obverse description | Helmeted and draped bust of Roma (possibly Athena) facing right, rendered in the provincial Greek style. The figure wears a crested helmet and a draped garment over the shoulder. The ethnic legend ΛΑΟΔΙΚΕΩΝ curves around the bust within the field. The engraving is characteristic of late first-century Flavian-period provincial coinage from western Asia Minor. |

| Reverse description | The she-wolf standing right, suckling the twins Romulus and Remus beneath her, rendered in a compact provincial style consistent with Flavian-era civic bronzes. The animal is depicted with its head turned downward toward the infants. The magistrate's legend arcs around the design in the upper field. The type evokes the Roman mythological foundation narrative, a common motif on provincial coinage of cities loyal to Rome. |
