| Obverse description | Laureate, draped and cuirassed bust of Emperor Gallienus facing right, depicted from behind in three-quarter rear view. The imperial effigy is rendered in the typical provincial style of the Mysian mint at Parium, with the paludamentum visible over the cuirass. The encircling legend in Latin reads IM LIC GALLIENVS, identifying the emperor by his full titulature. A beaded border frames the design. |

| Reverse description | The emperor is depicted on horseback, advancing to the right, wearing military dress with his cloak billowing dramatically behind him. He holds an elongated spear or hasta in his right hand, raised forward in the manner of an imperator on campaign. The composition conveys imperial military prowess in the tradition of provincial Roman equestrian types. The colonial abbreviation C G I H P is distributed around the field, referencing the Colonia Gemella Iulia Hadriana Pariana. A beaded border surrounds the design. |
