| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Maximinus Thrax facing right, presented from a rear three-quarter perspective, conveying a powerful military character typical of his provincial portraiture. The emperor's thick neck and broad shoulders are rendered with pronounced musculature beneath the cuirass, reflecting the colossal physical presence for which Maximinus was historically noted. A Greek legend encircles the bust within a dotted border, reading Γ ΙΟΥ ΟΥΗ ΜΑΞΙΜΕΙΝΟϹ ΑΥΓ, identifying him as Gaius Julius Verus Maximinus Augustus. The flan is irregular in shape, characteristic of provincial bronze coinage struck at Prusa ad Olympum in Bithynia during the mid-third century AD. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Sarapis depicted standing facing, his head turned to the left, clad in a long chiton and himation, wearing the characteristic modius (kalathos) atop his head. The deity raises his right hand in a gesture of benediction or salutation, while his left hand rests upon a long vertical sceptre. The reverse legend ΠΡΟΥϹΑΕΩΝ, meaning 'of the Prusaeans,' is inscribed in the field, identifying the issuing civic authority of Prusa ad Olympum. The composition reflects the widespread veneration of Sarapis in the eastern provinces of the Roman Empire and the city's adoption of the god as a prominent civic deity. |
