| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Caracalla facing right, rendered in three-quarter view from the rear, the paludamentum visible over the left shoulder. The Greek imperial legend surrounds the effigy in the field. The strike is somewhat flat, consistent with provincial hammered coinage of the period, and the surface carries a dark olive-green patina. |
