| Obverse description | Draped bust of the personified Roman Senate facing right, depicted as a mature male figure with a veiled or wreathed head. The legend ΙΕΡΑ ϹΥΝΚΛΗΤΟϹ (Sacred Senate) encircles the effigy in Greek characters. The bust is rendered in the provincial style typical of the Conventus of Sardis during the Severan period. The flan shows moderate wear and surface patination consistent with circulation use. |
