| Obverse description | Laureate, draped bust of Emperor Domitian facing right, rendered in the provincial Greek style typical of Bithynian civic coinage. The effigy displays the characteristic portraiture of the Flavian period, with a laurel wreath encircling the head. A Greek legend runs around the periphery of the flan, identifying the emperor with his full imperial titulature. The flan is broad and slightly irregular, consistent with hammered provincial bronze production. |
