| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate and draped bust of Antoninus Pius facing right, rendered in the provincial style characteristic of Corinthian colonial coinage. The emperor's portrait shows the characteristic beard and mature features of Antoninus Pius, with a laurel wreath crowning the head. The encircling Latin legend runs along the periphery of the flan. The die work reflects the competent but somewhat provincial engraving tradition of the Corinthian mint during the Antonine period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The Chimera, the mythological fire-breathing creature of Corinthian legend, depicted walking to the right across an unadorned field. The beast is rendered with a lion's body, a goat's head rising from its back, and a serpentine tail, consistent with classical representations of this creature closely associated with Corinth through the myth of Bellerophon. The colonial abbreviation legend is distributed around the figure in the field. The type alludes directly to Corinth's mythological heritage and civic identity as a Roman colony. |
