| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Antoninus Pius facing right, with traces of drapery visible on the left shoulder, rendered in the provincial Greek style characteristic of Lydian civic coinage. The effigy displays the emperor's characteristic beard and mature facial features. A Greek legend encircles the bust within the field, reading ΤΙΤΟϹ ΑΙΛΙΟϹ ΚΑΙϹ ΑΝΤΩΝΕΙΝΟϹ. The flan is irregular and the surfaces show heavy patination with red-brown and green encrustation consistent with prolonged burial. |
