| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed bust of Antinous facing right, with characteristic voluminous curly hair rendered in fine detail, the locks falling across the forehead and temples in the idealized Egyptianizing style associated with his posthumous cult imagery. The bust is draped on the left shoulder, presenting the youthful, full-cheeked physiognomy by which Antinous is conventionally recognized in numismatic and sculptural portraits. The circular Greek legend runs along the upper and lower periphery of the coin field. The portrait is boldly modeled in high relief, consistent with the prestige coinage issued in his honor by eastern provincial mints following his deification in 130 AD. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Sardis, once capital of the Lydian kingdom and seat of Croesus, retained ceremonial prestige under Roman rule as the leading city of its conventus — the judicial circuit that bore its name. The magistrate named in this issue, Kornelios Kornoutos, served as strategos, the civic office responsible for overseeing local coin production. These magistrate-signed bronzes were not imperial commissions but local civic issues, produced at Sardian expense to facilitate small-denomination exchange the imperial mint had no interest in supplying.
The reference III#2406A suggests this falls within a thinly documented subseries; specimens surface rarely enough that die links across the type remain poorly mapped.
