| Obverse description | Draped bust of the city goddess Mostene facing right, rendered in low relief with simple provincial workmanship. The hair is pulled back and bound, with a plain diadem or stephane visible atop the head. The bust is set within a dotted border, with the Greek legend placed in the field to the right. The style is characteristic of the civic bronzes of the Lydian conventus during the Flavian period. |
