| Obverse description | Bare-headed, cuirassed bust of Lucius Verus facing left, depicted with short beard characteristic of the emperor's portraiture. The effigy shows the paludamentum fastened at the shoulder over the military cuirass. The Greek imperial legend encircles the bust in the field, reading partially around the periphery. The portrait is rendered in the provincial style typical of Bithynian civic coinage of the Antonine period. |
