Obverse description Bare head of Commodus facing right, with short curly hair and a short beard rendered in a naturalistic provincial style. The portrait presents the young emperor as Caesar, with a slightly truncated bust. The encircling Latin legend reads COMMODO CAES ANTONINVS, partially visible within a dotted border. The workmanship is characteristic of the civic mint at Alexandria Troas, exhibiting the broader, less refined die-cutting typical of eastern provincial bronzes.
