Obverse description Laureate bust of Commodus with short beard, draped in paludamentum and cuirass, facing right and viewed from the rear, presented in the characteristically provincial style of Mysian civic coinage. The emperor's effigy occupies the central field, with the surrounding Greek legend disposed along the coin's periphery. The rendering of the military accoutrements — the cuirass and paludamentum — follows standard iconographic conventions for imperial portraits on eastern provincial bronze issues.
