| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, cuirassed and paludamentum-draped bust of Antoninus Pius facing right, seen from the centre, presenting the emperor in full imperial military regalia. The portrait is rendered in the typical Greek Imperial provincial style, with the laurel wreath encircling the head denoting imperial authority. The circumferential legend in Greek characters runs around the bust within the fields. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Nysa-on-the-Maeander was one of the more culturally assertive cities of inland Lydia, and its civic coinage under Antoninus Pius reflects a deliberate effort to advertise local religious identity to the wider Roman world. The epithet ΝΥϹΑΕΩΝ anchors the Kore figure specifically to Nysa's own mystery cult, distinct from the pan-Hellenic Eleusinian tradition — a pointed claim of local theological ownership at a time when civic pride was expressed through bronze rather than marble.
