| Obverse description | Youthful laureate head of the Demos facing right, rendered in the civic portrait tradition of Phrygian provincial coinage. The laureate wreath is rendered with curling leaves framing the youthful, idealised face. The legend ΔΗΜΟϹ ϹΤΕΚΤΟΡΗΝΩΝ curves around the bust in Greek characters, identifying the personified people of Stectorium. The flan is slightly irregular, characteristic of provincial bronze issues of the Antonine period. |
