| Obverse description | Radiate bust of Lucius Verus facing right, with traces of drapery visible at the truncation. The emperor is depicted with a short beard characteristic of the Antonine period, the radiate crown rendered with diverging rays. The Greek imperial legend surrounds the effigy, partially legible around the field. The portrait exhibits the provincial Alexandrian die-cutting style, with bold facial features typical of Egyptian mint production under the joint reign. |
