| Obverse description | Laureate and possibly draped bust of Antoninus Pius facing right, rendered in the provincial Greek style typical of Achaean civic coinage. The imperial effigy occupies the central field with the surrounding Greek legend disposed around the periphery. The portrait exhibits the characteristic beard and mature facial features associated with Antoninus Pius, consistent with his coinage struck during his reign from 138 to 161 AD. The flan is irregular and the strike somewhat worn, with traces of drapery visible at the truncation of the bust. |
