| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Gallienus facing right, portrayed three-quarter view from the rear, a presentation typical of provincial bronze coinage of the mid-third century. The imperial effigy is rendered in the local Cyzicene workshop style, with layered drapery and cuirass details visible beneath the laureate head. The encircling Greek legend names the emperor with his full titulature in the nominative case. A dotted border frames the entire design. |
