| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Marcus Aurelius facing right, wearing paludamentum over cuirass. The portrait reflects the mature imperial style of the Antonine period, with characteristic beard and idealized features. The legend encircles the bust within the coin field. |

| Reverse description | Standing figure of Homonoia (Concordia) depicted facing, with head turned to the left. She extends her right hand holding a patera over a lighted altar at her side, while her left arm supports a cornucopia. The composition is typical of civic bronze coinage from Peloponnesian mints during the Antonine period, symbolizing civic harmony and prosperity. |
