| Obverse description | Bare, horned head of Zeus Ammon facing right, rendered in the distinctive syncretic Greco-Egyptian tradition with ram's horns curling behind the ears amid flowing hair and beard. The portrait is set within a dotted border, with the Greek legend distributed in the field to either side of the effigy. The modeling is bold and high-relief, characteristic of provincial bronze coinage from the Conventus of Pergamum under the joint reign of Valerian and Gallienus. |
