| Obverse description | Bare-headed, three-quarter length bust of Antinous facing right, rendered with characteristic youthful features and the distinctive full, curling hair associated with his portraiture. The effigy is depicted with drapery visible at the shoulder, presented in a slightly frontal, three-quarter pose that conveys idealized Hellenistic beauty. The Greek legend ΒΕΤΟΥΡΙΟϹ, referencing the magistrate Veturius, is partially visible in the field. A dotted border frames the design. The die engraving reflects the high artistic standard of provincial coinage struck in Hadrianic Corinth. |
