| Obverse description | Radiate and cuirassed bust of Gallienus facing right, viewed from the rear, with the radiate crown prominently rendered and the cuirass detailed with pteryges visible at the shoulder. The effigy is presented in the distinctive three-quarter rear view characteristic of certain provincial bronze issues of this period. A Greek legend encircles the bust within the field, identifying the emperor by his full titulature. |
