| Obverse description | Laureate head of Zeus facing right, with traces of drapery visible at the truncation. The effigy is rendered in a coarse provincial style typical of Achaean civic bronze coinage of the Antonine period. The legend ΑΙΓΙΕΩΝ (of the Aegians) is disposed around the bust in Greek characters. The flan is irregular and the surfaces heavily patinated, consistent with extended circulation. |
