| Obverse description | Draped bust of Empress Tranquillina facing right, wearing a stephane (diadem) and elaborate coiffure with hair arranged in waves and gathered at the back. The portrait is rendered in the provincial style typical of the Lydian mint at Sardis, with fine drapery visible at the shoulder. A beaded border encircles the field, and the Greek legend runs around the periphery identifying the empress by her full titulature. |
