The imperial effigy is rendered in the conventional provincial style, with the head in profile. A partially legible Latin legend runs along the outer rim of the flan, identifying the emperor by his Antonine dynastic title. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Corinth's civic bronze issues under Marcus Aurelius reflect the city's peculiar status as a Roman colonia — refounded by Julius Caesar in 44 BC on the ruins of the Greek city destroyed by Mummius in 146 BC — which explains the Latin colonial abbreviations in the legend rather than the Greek civic inscriptions typical of most Achaean bronzes from this period. The colonists' descendants were still asserting that Roman identity two centuries later.
