| Obverse description | Laureate and cuirassed bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, with the characteristic short beard associated with his portraiture. The effigy displays the emperor's armor in some detail, consistent with the provincial Greek civic coinage tradition of the Conventus of Pergamum. The circular Greek legend runs around the periphery of the flan, partially visible on this worn specimen. The strike is typical of a small provincial mint, with the flan showing irregular edges. |
