| Obverse description | Turreted and draped bust of Tyche facing right, wearing a mural crown, rendered in the provincial Greek style typical of the Lesbos mint under the joint reign of Valerian and Gallienus. The bust is set within a circular border, with the encircling legend running along the periphery of the flan. A small perforation is visible near the upper field, indicative of post-antique suspension use. The strike is somewhat uneven, consistent with hammered provincial bronze coinage of the mid-third century AD. |
