| Obverse description | Bare head of Antinous facing right, rendered in the idealized Hellenistic portrait style characteristic of his posthumous heroic cult imagery. The youthful effigy displays the distinctive full features and slightly wavy hair associated with canonical representations of Antinous. The Greek legend ΗΡΩϹ ΑΝΤΙΝΟΟϹ appears in the field, identifying the subject as the deified hero. The flan is irregular and the surfaces show typical wear consistent with provincial bronze coinage of the Hadrianic period. |
