| Obverse description | Bare laureate head of Emperor Severus Alexander facing right, rendered in the provincial style typical of Bithynian civic coinage. The portrait displays the characteristic youthful features of the emperor, with the laurel wreath clearly delineated around the head. A Greek legend encircles the effigy within the field, identifying the emperor by his abbreviated titulature. The flan is irregular and the surface shows typical wear consistent with ancient circulation. |
