| Obverse description | Bare-headed, draped and cuirassed bust of Geta as Caesar facing right, viewed from the rear, with short curly hair rendered in the naturalistic style typical of Severan provincial coinage. The paludamentum is visible over the left shoulder, and the cuirass is indicated at the lower truncation. The encircling Greek legend appears in the field around the portrait. |

| Reverse description | Artemis, the divine huntress, strides energetically to the right, her body shown in three-quarter view. She reaches back with her right hand to draw an arrow from the quiver slung over her shoulder, while her left hand holds a bow. At her feet, a hunting hound accompanies her, a standard attribute reinforcing her role as goddess of the hunt. The ethnic legend of Alabanda fills the field around the figure. |
