| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Antoninus Pius facing right, with paludamentum visible over the left shoulder. The emperor's portrait is rendered in the characteristic provincial style of Syro-Palestinian workshops, with a radiate wreath and layered military dress. A partially preserved Greek legend surrounds the effigy along the rim, of which only ]ΝΙΝΟϹ[ remains legible, the remainder lost to wear and corrosion. The flan is broad and irregular, consistent with provincial Æ production of the Antonine period. |
