| Obverse description | Radiate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Gallienus facing right, depicted in three-quarter view from the front, with the radiate crown rendered in pronounced relief. The paludamentum is visible over the cuirass, conveying imperial military authority. A circular Greek legend surrounds the bust in the field, with the emperor's full titulature reading ΠΟ ΛΙ ΕΓΝ ΓΑΛΛΙΗΝΟϹ ϹΕΒ. The flan is irregularly shaped and shows a small central perforation consistent with post-antique use as a pendant or amulet. |
