| Obverse description | Youthful laureate bust of Commodus, draped in paludamentum and cuirass, facing right, seen from the centre. The portrait reflects the co-imperial period when Commodus was elevated to co-Augustus alongside Marcus Aurelius. The obverse legend encircles the bust, naming the emperor in Greek characters. The die work displays the provincial engraving style characteristic of Mytilenean civic bronzes. |
