| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Septimius Severus facing right, the emperor's characteristic bearded effigy rendered in the provincial style typical of the Troas conventus. The Greek imperial titulature legend runs around the periphery of the flan. The portrait, though worn, retains the broad forehead and curled beard associated with Severan portraiture. |

| Reverse description | Asclepius, god of medicine, depicted standing facing with head turned to the left, draped in a long himation, and holding his emblematic serpent-entwined staff (the caduceus of Asclepius) in his right hand. The figure is rendered in the conventional provincial style, with the deity's form clearly delineated within the coin's field. The ethnic legend of the city of Antandrus encircles the reverse type. |
