| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate head of Zeus facing right, with traces of drapery visible at the neck, rendered in the local provincial style. The hair is depicted in flowing locks beneath the laurel wreath, with long locks falling behind the neck. The ethnic legend ΑΙΓΙΕΩΝ curves around the field, partially visible along the periphery of the flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Aegium was one of the twelve cities of the Achaean League, and its civic bronze issues under Antoninus Pius reflect the modest but persistent autonomy Rome permitted to Greek communities in matters of local coinage. The hemiobol denomination and the partially retrograde legend — ΛΙΝ inverted and continued in the exergue — suggest either a lapsing of quality control at the local workshop or a deliberate spatial solution to a cramped flan, a problem endemic to smaller civic bronzes of the period.
