| Obverse description | Draped and cuirassed bust of Antoninus Pius, laureate, facing left and seen from the rear, with the paludamentum visible over the left shoulder. The emperor is portrayed in a three-quarter rear view, an uncommon and artistically ambitious orientation in provincial coinage. The obverse legend runs around the periphery of the flan in Greek characters, identifying the emperor. The portrait exhibits the characteristic middle-aged features of Antoninus Pius as rendered in eastern provincial workshop style. |
