| Obverse description | Bare-headed, laureate bust of Emperor Antoninus Pius facing right, with paludamentum (imperial cloak) draped over the left shoulder, rendered in the characteristic realistic portraiture style of Antonine provincial coinage. The emperor's features display the mature, bearded physiognomy associated with his later reign, with finely articulated hair and laurel wreath. The surrounding legend in Greek script reads the imperial titulature abbreviated around the periphery of the flan. The flan shows the slightly irregular, hand-struck character typical of provincial Æ coinage of Asia Minor in the mid-second century AD. |
