| Obverse description | Draped bust of the personified Roman Senate (Senatus) facing right, depicted with veiled and turreted or wreathed head, rendered in the provincial style typical of Asia Minor civic coinage under Philip I. The obverse legend ΙΕΡΑ ϹΥΝΚΛΗΤΟϹ encircles the bust, identifying the effigy as the sacred Senate. The die work reflects the local Temnian workshop, with moderately fine engraving visible despite the coin's worn and irregularly shaped flan. |
