| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed cuirassed bust of Lucius Verus, draped with paludamentum, facing right and presented from behind. The obverse legend in Greek encircles the bust, identifying the emperor with his Armenian title. The portraiture reflects the provincial Greek civic coinage style of the Antonine period, with characteristic treatment of the imperial drapery and military attire. |

The misspelling in the city ethnic — ΠΡΟΥϹΙΓΩ rather than the correct ΠΡΟΥϹΙΑΓΩ — is not a modern cataloging quirk but an actual engraver's error cut directly into the die. Prusias ad Hypium was a minor Bithynian city with no particular claim to prestige, and the blunder was left uncorrected through the coin's entire production run. Such lapses are documented more frequently from smaller civic mints operating under Marcus Aurelius, where quality control answered to local magistrates rather than any imperial oversight.
