| Obverse description | Radiate, draped and cuirassed bust of Gallienus facing right, depicted from behind, with the radiate crown clearly visible above the head. The portrait is rendered in the provincial style typical of Pontic civic coinage of the mid-third century AD. The obverse legend in Greek characters runs around the bust within the field. The surface is heavily worn and encrusted, consistent with prolonged circulation and burial, yet the general form of the imperial effigy remains discernible. |
