| Beschrijving voorzijde | Radiate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Gallienus facing left, seen from the rear, with the radiate crown clearly visible above the head. The legend IMP C GALLIENV runs partially around the periphery of the field. The portrait is rendered in the provincial style characteristic of Pontic civic coinage of the mid-third century, with visible drapery folds over the shoulder. The flan is irregular, as is typical of provincial bronze issues of this period. |

The civic era date encoded in this coin's legend — year 330 of the Pontic era, anchored to 297/6 BC — places the strike in 262/3, the opening years of Gallienus's sole reign after his father Valerian was captured by Shapur I at the Battle of Edessa. Sinope, a historically Greek colony on the Black Sea coast, retained its own civic calendar and minting authority deep into the imperial period, a privilege reflecting its status as a Roman colony since 45 BC under Julius Caesar.
