| Obverse description | Laureate head of the emperor Antoninus Pius facing right, rendered in the provincial style typical of Bithynian civic coinage. The portrait displays characteristic features of the Antonine era, with a wreathed laurel crown and short beard. The surrounding Greek legend runs clockwise around the bust within the coin's field. The flan is irregular in shape, as is common for struck provincial bronzes of this period. |
