| Obverse description | Bare laureate head of the emperor Hadrian facing right, rendered in the provincial style typical of the Conventus of Miletus. The portrait displays the characteristic short beard and idealized features associated with Hadrian's imperial iconography. A partial Greek legend encircles the bust, identifying the emperor by his title. The flan is irregular in shape, as is common for provincial bronze issues of this period. |
