| Obverse description | Veiled and draped bust of Boule facing right, rendered in the typical provincial style of the Severan period. The veil falls softly over the head and shoulders, conveying the sacred and institutional character of the personification. The legend ΙΕΡΑ ΒΟΥΛΗ (Sacred Council) is disposed around the bust within the field. The die work is characteristic of the Aphrodisian civic mint, with moderate relief and competent engraving. |
