| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed bust of Marcus Aurelius facing right, depicted with a medium-length beard with short curls, wearing cuirass and paludamentum, the figure seen from the rear. The portrait presents the emperor in a three-quarter rear view, a compositional convention occasionally used in provincial Roman coinage. The surrounding field carries a partially legible Latin legend. The bust style is characteristic of early Antonine provincial issues from Mysia. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Draped bust of Faustina II facing right, her hair elaborately arranged in the Antonine fashion typical of mid-second century provincial portraiture. The bust is rendered in moderate relief consistent with hammered provincial bronze coinage of Mysia. The field surrounding the effigy likely carried a Greek or Latin legend, though it appears largely illegible on the surviving specimen. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Parium, the old Parian colony on the Propontis, was one of the more active provincial mints in the Adramyteum conventus during the joint reign of Marcus Aurelius and Lucius Verus. The early 160s were consumed by the Parthian War — Lucius Verus nominally commanding in the East while Marcus held Rome — and provincial bronze issues from this window often reflect the administrative strain of funding simultaneous frontier campaigns on two axes.
Parium's output for this period is modest by volume, and die matches across known specimens suggest limited production runs rather than sustained civic minting.
