| Obverse description | Confronted bare-headed busts of Lucius Verus (left) and Marcus Aurelius (right), each draped in the paludamentum (military cloak), facing one another across the coin field. The imperial portrait style reflects mid-Antonine Roman provincial die-cutting, with both emperors rendered in profile facing inward. The surrounding Greek legend names both co-emperors. The flan is irregularly struck, consistent with provincial bronze coinage of the period. |
