| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Commodus facing right, rendered in the provincial style typical of Achaean colonial coinage. The portrait displays the characteristic short beard and curled hair of Commodus, with the laurel wreath clearly articulated across the brow. A circular Latin legend surrounds the effigy, with notable die irregularities including an inverted D and a reversed S in the inscription. The overall style reflects the competent but slightly rustic hand of a provincial mint. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The colonial founder depicted as a togate priest advancing to the left, guiding a yoke of two oxen as he ploughs the sacred sulcus primigenius, the ritual furrow marking the boundary of the Roman colony of Patrae. The figure holds the plough handle with both hands, and the oxen are rendered in profile with careful attention to anatomical detail. This type commemorates the Augustan foundation of Colonia Aroe Augusta Patrensis and is a hallmark reverse type for the colonial coinage of Patras. The colonial legend appears in the field, affirming the city's status as a Roman colony. |
