| Obverse description | Laureate head of Caracalla facing right, with short beard visible on the jaw and neck, rendered in the characteristic energetic style of Severan provincial portraiture. The legend runs around the periphery within a beaded border. The portrait displays the emperor's distinctive features with a thick neck and strong facial structure typical of his mature coinage. |
