| Obverse description | Bare-headed, draped and cuirassed bust of Geta as Caesar, facing right and viewed from the rear, the paludamentum visible over the left shoulder. The portrait reflects the youthful features typical of Geta's early coinage under his father Septimius Severus. The Greek legend encircles the bust within the field. |

| Reverse description | An eagle stands facing with head turned to the left, its wings spread prominently to either side in a heraldic posture, a common reverse type on provincial bronzes of the Severan era. The bird occupies nearly the full flan, with its talons visible at the base. The ethnic legend of the issuing city is inscribed around the type within the field. |
