Obverse description Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Gallienus facing right, depicted from the rear in the characteristic three-quarter back view favoured in provincial coinage of Asia Minor. The effigy displays detailed engraving of the paludamentum and segmented cuirass. A Greek imperial legend encircles the bust within a beaded border. The style is consistent with the civic workshop output of Smyrna during the sole reign period.
