| Obverse description | Laureate head of Apollo facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic civic tradition. The god's hair is carefully arranged with a wreath of laurel, and the facial features display a youthful profile characteristic of Milesian bronze coinage of the Imperial period. The field is largely plain, with no visible legend on this side. |

| Additional information |
Miletus, by Nero's reign, was a city running largely on administrative inertia — its classical glory long spent, its harbor silting badly, its role reduced to the seat of one of Asia's judicial districts. The magistrate name preserved in the legend, Titus Damas, appears on a small group of local bronzes from this period and represents one of the few fixed points for sequencing the city's mid-first-century civic coinage.
