| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate and draped bust of Antoninus Pius facing right, rendered in the provincial Greek style with a bearded portrait characteristic of the emperor's mature coinage. The effigy is set within a dotted border, with the Greek imperial titulature legend disposed around the periphery. The portrait displays bold, if somewhat rustic, die-cutting typical of a small Lydian civic mint. The laurel wreath is rendered with individual leaves visible above the brow. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Briula was a minor Lydian city whose exact location remains disputed — most scholars place it somewhere in the Cayster River valley, but no excavation has conclusively confirmed the site. Its coins are rare precisely because the city was small and its autonomous bronze issues appear confined to a narrow window under Antoninus Pius. The conventus of Ephesus administered Roman judicial business for the region, but civic bronze at this level was a local prerogative, issued to facilitate small transactions the Roman silver economy never reached.
