| Obverse description | Bare-necked, laureate and draped bust of Antoninus Pius facing right, the emperor rendered with characteristic curly hair and short beard in the provincial Greek style. The effigy occupies the central field, with the circular legend distributed around the periphery. The portrait displays the mature, idealised features conventional to Antonine imperial imagery on provincial bronze coinage. |
