| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Macrinus facing right, depicted from the rear in the characteristic three-quarter back view. The imperial effigy is rendered in the provincial style typical of Bithynian civic coinage, with the laurel wreath clearly distinguishable atop the head. A dotted border frames the field, and the encircling Greek legend runs along the periphery. The coin shows heavy patination and surface wear consistent with circulation use. |
