| Reverse description | Standing figure of the co-emperor Lucius Verus rendered in full military attire, facing left; the figure extends one arm holding a Nike (Victory figurine) and carries a long spear in the other hand. The composition reflects the standard martial honorific iconography employed on provincial bronze coinage of the joint reign of Marcus Aurelius and Lucius Verus. The reverse legend, distributed around the field, records the name of the local magistrate Titianos Bromios, archon of the Saittans, following the eponymous formula standard for Lydian civic coinage. |
