| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, cuirassed bust of Commodus with short beard, draped in paludamentum, facing right and viewed from the rear. The portrait reflects the early regnal style of Commodus, with characteristic tight laurel wreath and military attire. The obverse legend encircles the bust in Greek characters, identifying the emperor by his Aurelius nomenclature. The overall style is consistent with provincial die-cutting workshops of Pergamum, displaying confident but somewhat provincial engraving. The field is plain, with no additional symbols or monograms. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Asclepius, the god of medicine, is depicted seated to the left upon a throne or rock, holding in his extended hand a small cult statue of the Artemis of Ephesus (Artemis Ephesia), with her characteristic multiple-breasted form, positioned above an erect serpent coiled around a tall staff. The imagery deliberately links the two great cities, Pergamum and Ephesus, through their principal deities—Asclepius and Artemis—reflecting the honorific alliance expressed in the reverse legend. The composition is typical of joint-issue provincial bronzes celebrating civic partnerships (homonoia) between Pergamum and Ephesus. The Greek legend surrounds the design field, naming the strategos Pios and the two cities. The engraving style is characteristic of the Pergamene provincial workshop of the Antonine period. |
