| Obverse description | Draped bust of Faustina II facing right, her hair elaborately waved and drawn up into a bun at the nape, consistent with imperial portraiture of the Antonine period. The effigy is rendered in the provincial style typical of the Troad, with visible drapery folds over the shoulder. The obverse legend ΦΑΥϹΤΕΙΝ ϹΕΒΑϹ (abbreviating Φαυστεῖνα Σεβαστή) curves around the bust in Greek characters. |
