| Obverse description | Draped bust of Annia Faustina, diademed, facing right, with elaborately styled hair worn in waves and secured at the nape; the portrait is rendered in the provincial style typical of the Cibyra conventus. A dotted border frames the design, and the Greek imperial title legend runs continuously around the periphery of the flan. |

| Reverse description | Athena seated to the left on a throne, wearing helmet and peplos; she extends her right hand holding a Nike, and her left hand rests on a spear or sceptre, with a large oval shield set against the throne behind her. The composition follows a well-established provincial iconographic type for the neocorate city of Laodicea ad Lycum, and the figure is rendered with compact proportions characteristic of Severan-era provincial die-cutting. A dotted border encloses the scene, with the civic legend distributed around the full circumference of the flan. |
