| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Marcus Aurelius facing right, rendered in the typical provincial style of Bithynian coinage. The imperial effigy displays characteristic beard and curled hair of the emperor. The circumferential Greek legend surrounds the bust within the field. The flan is slightly irregular, consistent with hand-struck provincial bronze coinage of the Antonine period. |
