| Obverse description | Laureate head of Emperor Antoninus Pius facing right, rendered in the typical provincial style of Bithynian coinage. The effigy displays the characteristic mature features of the emperor, with a laurel wreath clearly visible atop the head. A partial Greek legend runs along the periphery of the flan, partially obscured by the irregular edge and surface wear. The coin exhibits a patina of green and brown oxidation consistent with prolonged burial, with areas of exposed original bronze surface visible. |
