| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Antoninus Pius facing right, with bare neck, rendered in the provincial style characteristic of Bithynian civic coinage. The emperor's portrait displays the customary mature features associated with his reign, including a short beard. The circular legend encircles the effigy, reading ΑΥΤοΚΡΑΤΩΡ ΚΑΙϹΑΡ ΑΝΤΩΝΕΙΝοϹ in Greek characters around the obverse field. The die engraving, though somewhat worn, conveys the imperial authority typical of mid-second century provincial bronzes. |
