| Obverse description | Youthful bare-headed bust of Commodus facing right, clad in cuirass and paludamentum, with characteristic curly hair rendered in tight ringlets. The portrait displays the boyish features of the young Caesar, distinguishable from his father Marcus Aurelius by the absence of a beard. The obverse legend curves around the bust in Greek characters identifying the subject. The flan is slightly irregular, as typical of provincial bronze coinage of this period. |
