Obverse description Laureate and draped bust of Antoninus Pius facing right, with the emperor depicted in paludamentum (military cloak) fastened at the shoulder. The portrait displays the characteristic full beard and mature features of the emperor in his later reign. The encircling Greek legend reads ΑΝΤωΝΙΝΟϹ ϹΕΒ ΕΥϹΕΒ, identifying the emperor with his epithet Eusebes (Pious). The die work reflects the Alexandrian provincial style, combining Hellenistic portraiture traditions with Roman imperial iconography.
