| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Antoninus Pius facing right, with traces of drapery visible at the shoulder truncation, rendered in the realistic portraiture style characteristic of Antonine provincial coinage. The laureate wreath is depicted with clearly articulated leaves. The obverse legend runs around the periphery of the flan, partially visible due to the irregular striking. The portrait exhibits a mature, bearded effigy consistent with official representations of Antoninus Pius during his reign. |
