Obverse lettering ΚΑΙ ΑΥ ΑΔΡΙΑΝΟϹ
(Translation: Caesar Emperor Hadrian)
Reverse description Central device consisting of a caduceus — the winged staff entwined with serpents — depicted upright in the field, serving as the principal type. The four Greek letters Τ, Υ, Ρ, Α are disposed in the four quadrants flanking the caduceus, reading as the civic abbreviation ΤΥΡΑ for Tyra. The composition is sparse and boldly rendered, consistent with the simple civic types of this Black Sea Greek colonial mint during the Hadrianic period.
