| Obverse lettering | ANTONINVS PIVS FEL A (Translation: Antoninus Pius Fortunate Augustus) |
| Reverse description | Full-length figure of Artemis Phosphoros, the torch-bearing aspect of the goddess, striding energetically to the right in draped attire. She holds an upraised torch in each hand, her garments rendered with fluid folds characteristic of provincial Roman die-engraving. A turreted or crescent element appears above her head, consistent with her lunar associations. The reverse field carries the abbreviated colonial legend, and the composition is framed by a beaded border. The design reflects the strong local veneration of Artemis at the colony of Parium. |
