| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Commodus facing right, rendered in the provincial style characteristic of Bithynian coinage. The portrait displays the emperor's characteristic features with a laurel wreath crowning the head. A circular legend in Greek characters surrounds the effigy within a beaded border. The flan shows a crack through the upper portion of the die, a condition consistent with the irregular striking of provincial bronzes of this period. |
