This emission is a rarer issue of this type with a small head on the reverse. The identity of the individuals featured on this coin has been open to speculation. Some suggest the obverse male is a youthful river god. Some have suggested the male on the reverse is an older river god, others suggest it is Dionysos. Bodenstedt notes 29 examples of this general emission and within that only 4 of this variety. A further 81 examples have appeared at auction, this being the 81st and within that only 5 of this variety.

Sinope (AD 253-260) AE 24 - Valerian I288 viewsValerian I , 253-260 AD. AE24 (9.02g, 3h), Dated CY 329 (258/9 AD (?). IMP VALER[IANVS ...], laureate, draped and cuirassed bust right / [C I F S ANN] CCXXV[IIII], bearded facing archaic head of Dionysos, wearing cap. Extremely rare. Corrosion pits, aVF.
The late bronzes of Sinope are almost always poorly produced and of crude style, thus making them hard to read. On this coin, the date starts with CCXX, followed by what might be a V, and a possible additional IIII on the left side of Dionysos' beard. The fact that the coin was struck from the same obverse die as SNG Paris 661 with a clear (though retrograde) date of XXVIIII, supports this reading.
