Obverse description Laureate and draped bust of Severus Alexander facing right, rendered in the provincial style typical of the Lydian mint at Mastaura. The imperial effigy displays the laurel wreath clearly atop the head, with drapery visible over the left shoulder. The Greek legend encircles the bust, naming the emperor as Alexander Augustus. The flan is irregular and the surface carries a patina consistent with prolonged circulation.

Obverse lettering ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟϹ ΑΥ
(Translation: Alexander Augustus)
