| Obverse description | Bare-headed bust of Emperor Marcus Aurelius facing right, with traces of drapery visible at the truncation, rendered in the characteristic Antonine style with curly hair and short beard. The portrait displays the naturalistic physiognomy associated with early imperial coinage of Marcus Aurelius. A circular Greek legend runs around the periphery of the flan. The die work reflects the provincial engraving tradition of the Pontic mint at Amastris. |
