| Obverse description | Laureate head of Lucius Verus facing left, with traces of drapery visible at the shoulder. The portrait is rendered in the provincial style typical of Achaean civic coinage of the Antonine period, with characteristic bearded features. A retrograde Greek legend surrounds the effigy in the field. The flan is irregular and the strike moderately centered, consistent with local municipal production. |
