| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Marcus Aurelius facing right, rendered in moderately high relief characteristic of provincial Greek coinage. The laureate wreath is rendered with individual leaves visible around the brow. The imperial titulature legend runs around the periphery in Greek script, identifying the emperor as Caesar Marcus Aurelius Antoninus. The portrait displays the characteristic bearded physiognomy associated with Marcus Aurelius, with short curled hair visible beneath the wreath. |
