| Obverse description | Laureate head of Emperor Severus Alexander facing right, rendered in the provincial style typical of Bithynian civic coinage. The portrait is somewhat crude in execution, as characteristic of Pontic civic issues of the Severan period. A circular Greek legend surrounds the effigy in the field. |
