Beschrijving voorzijde Draped bust of Empress Crispina facing right, her hair elaborately dressed in the characteristic Antonine style with curls and a bun at the nape, as was fashionable in the late 2nd century AD. The effigy is rendered in relatively high relief typical of provincial Greek coinage, with visible drapery folds at the truncation of the shoulder. The circumferential legend in Greek characters encircles the portrait field, identifying the empress as Augusta. The coin is heavily worn, with much of the finer detail of the facial features and legend now largely effaced.

Beschrijving keerzijde An emperor, identified as Marcus Aurelius or Commodus, depicted on horseback advancing to the right, raising his right arm in a gesture of salutation or adlocutio, a standard imperial iconographic motif. The horse is shown in a vigorous prancing stance with the forelegs raised, rendered in the provincial Greek sculptural tradition. The design occupies the central field of the flan with the surrounding Greek legend naming the strategos Dionysios and the city of Mytilene serving as the authority for the issue. The surfaces are heavily worn and encrusted, obscuring most of the fine detail of the equestrian group and the surrounding legend.
