| Obverse description | Bare head of Lucius Verus facing right, depicted with characteristic curly hair rendered in the Antonine style. The portrait is modeled in moderate relief with individualizing facial features typical of imperial provincial coinage. The surrounding field carries the abbreviated Greek imperial titulature legend. The flan is irregular and the strike somewhat worn, consistent with a circulated provincial bronze issue. |
