| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Elagabalus facing right, depicted from the rear in the characteristic three-quarter back view common to provincial Ephesian coinage of this period. The effigy shows the emperor in military attire with paludamentum visible at the shoulder. The surrounding field carries a partially legible Greek imperial titulature legend. The portrait style is consistent with the provincial workshop tradition of the Ephesian mint under the Severan dynasty. |
