Obverse lettering ΑΥΤΟΚΡΑΤΩΡ ΤΡΑΙΑΝ ΑΔΡΙΑΝΟϹ ΚΑΙϹ
(Translation: Emperor Trajan Hadrian Caesar)
Reverse description Apollo depicted standing facing, his head turned slightly, holding a plectrum in his raised right hand and a lyre in his lowered left hand. The figure is rendered in a statuesque, classicizing style consistent with Hadrianic-era provincial bronzes from Caria. The ethnic legend of the issuing city is inscribed in the field around the deity. The composition reflects Halicarnassus's association with Apolline cult worship during the Imperial period.
