| Obverse description | Bare-headed bust of Emperor Commodus facing right, depicted wearing a cuirass and paludamentum (military cloak), with curled hair rendered in the characteristic Commodan style. The portrait is set within a beaded border, with the Greek imperial titulature legend distributed around the periphery of the field. The bust displays the confident, muscular presentation typical of provincial bronze coinage struck in Bithynia during Commodus's reign. |
