| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, cuirassed bust of Emperor Commodus facing right, with short beard, draped with paludamentum over the left shoulder. The obverse legend, rendered in Greek characters, encircles the imperial effigy and identifies the emperor by his titles and name. The portrait displays the characteristic youthful features of early Commodan coinage, with fine engraving of the military dress typical of provincial bronze issues from Bithynia. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Prusa ad Olympum — modern Bursa in northwestern Turkey — was a Bithynian city that leveraged its proximity to Mount Olympus and its status as a regional administrative center to secure coinage rights under the early Severan and Antonine emperors. This issue falls within the opening years of Commodus's sole reign, after the death of Marcus Aurelius in March 180 AD, when provincial mints across Bithynia briefly intensified output as cities competed for imperial favor through dedicatory bronze issues.
