| Obverse description | Bare-headed bust of Emperor Commodus facing right, with curly hair rendered in the characteristic style of his portraiture. The legend is disposed around the field in Greek characters, identifying the emperor by his full imperial titulature. The portrait exhibits the youthful, idealized treatment typical of provincial bronze coinage of Bithynia during the Antonine period. |
