| Obverse description | Radiate bust of Caracalla facing left, wearing radiate crown. The legend ΑΥ Κ Μ Α is partially visible in the field, representing an abbreviated form of the emperor's imperial titulature in Greek. The portrait is rendered in the typical provincial style, with somewhat crude workmanship characteristic of Mesopotamian civic bronzes of the Severan period. |
