| Obverse description | Laureate, draped bust of Emperor Commodus facing right, with short to medium-length beard, rendered in the provincial style characteristic of Troas. The portrait displays the emperor's effigy in three-quarter view, with the laureate wreath clearly visible atop the head. The surrounding field carries the Latin imperial titulature legend, with a sic notation for the misspelling CAI in place of the expected CAES. The flan is irregular and slightly worn, as typical of provincial bronze coinage of the Antonine period. |
