| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Gallienus facing right, rendered in three-quarter view from the front. The emperor is depicted with a short beard, the laurel wreath clearly visible atop his head, and the paludamentum fastened at the shoulder. The cuirass is detailed with decorative patterning at the neckline. The obverse legend runs around the periphery of the flan in Latin characters. |

| Reverse description | A Capricorn strides to the right, its scaly body and curved horn rendered in confident provincial style; a terrestrial globe is clasped between its forelegs, symbolising imperial dominion. A cornucopia is depicted upon the creature's back, alluding to abundance and prosperity. The reverse legend, distributed across the field below and around the type, identifies the issuing colonial authority. The overall composition is typical of the Hadrianic colonial coinage of Parium. |
