Obverse description Bare laureate head of Antoninus Pius facing right, rendered in the conventional imperial portrait style of the Antonine period. The laurel wreath is visible atop the head, a mark of imperial dignity. The peripheral Greek legend encircles the effigy, reading ΑΥΤ ΚΑΙϹΑΡ ΑΝΤΩΝΕΙΝΟϹ. The flan shows an irregular edge characteristic of provincial hammered bronze coinage. The surface carries a dark brown patina with areas of green encrustation obscuring fine detail.
Obverse script Greek
Obverse lettering ΑΥΤ ΚΑΙϹΑΡ ΑΝΤΩΝΕΙΝΟϹ
(Translation: Emperor Caesar Antoninus)
