| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Emperor Antoninus Pius facing right, with short beard and draped shoulders, rendered in the provincial Greek style typical of Achaean civic coinage. The portrait displays the characteristic mature effigy of the emperor, with laurel wreath rendered in some detail despite the small module. A Greek imperial legend encircles the bust within the coin's field. |
