| Obverse description | Draped bust of Antinous facing left, bare-headed, with his characteristic youthful features and thick, curling hair rendered in the idealized Hellenistic style. The effigy is portrayed with a muscular neck and drapery visible at the truncation. The circular Greek legend surrounds the bust, with the word ΘΕΟΝ appearing prominently in the lower field, emphasizing the posthumous divine status accorded to Antinous by his native city. |
