| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Valerian I facing right, depicted from behind in the three-quarter rear view characteristic of certain provincial issues. The obverse legend, rendered in Greek majuscules, encircles the imperial effigy and identifies the emperor by his full titulature. The portrait displays the naturalistic style typical of mid-third-century Roman provincial coinage from Asia Minor. |
