| Obverse description | Bare-headed effigy of Antoninus Pius facing right, rendered in the naturalistic portrait style typical of early Antonine imperial coinage. The emperor's features are depicted with characteristic Roman realism, the neck truncation cleanly cut. The surrounding field carries the imperial titulature legend distributed around the periphery. The coin exhibits heavy green patination with areas of brown bronze visible beneath, consistent with prolonged burial, partially obscuring the relief detail of both the portrait and the surrounding inscription. |
