| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate and cuirassed bust of Emperor Elagabalus facing right, depicted frontally with strong relief typical of provincial Syrian-Arabian coinage. The effigy is set within a beaded or plain border, with the Greek imperial legend arranged around the periphery of the field. The portrait style reflects the conventions of the eastern provincial mints under the Severan dynasty. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Bostra's civic coinage under Elagabalus continued the city's long-standing practice of honoring Dushara, the principal Nabataean deity whose cult had deep roots in the region long before the Roman annexation of Arabia in 106 AD. The epithet ΘΕΟϹ paired with the Grecized ΔΟΥϹΑΡΗϹ reflects the syncretizing impulse of the Severan period, blending Nabataean religious identity with the Greek divine vocabulary that Roman provincial administration preferred.
