Beschrijving voorzijde Bare-headed bust of Marcus Aurelius facing right, depicted with a medium-length to long beard with short curls, wearing cuirass and paludamentum, the figure presented from a rear three-quarter perspective. The portrait displays the characteristic Antonine style of provincial Greek coinage, with the drapery of the paludamentum visible over the left shoulder. A circular Latin legend surrounds the bust in the field. The flan is irregular and the surfaces show the typical green patina associated with provincial bronze coinage of Mysia.

Aanvullende informatie

Parium, a Roman colony on the Propontis coast, was one of the few Mysian cities to retain active civic bronze production into the joint reign of Marcus Aurelius and Lucius Verus. The abbreviated reverse legend referencing Faustina the Younger — FAVST AVGVS — places this piece in the early co-reign, before her death in 175 AD. Colonial bronzes from the Adramyteum conventus are notably underrepresented in major collections, partly because the region's output was modest and partly because Asia Minor provincials in small modules were long dismissed by 19th-century collectors in favor of larger civic issues.
