| Obverse description | Bare-headed bust of Lucius Verus, draped in cuirass and paludamentum, facing right, with curly hair rendered in fine relief. The imperial effigy is depicted in the Roman provincial style characteristic of Bithynian civic coinage of the Antonine period. A Greek legend surrounds the bust along the coin's periphery, bordered by a dotted beaded circle. The portrait displays the characteristic full beard and thick curls associated with Lucius Verus's official iconography. |
