| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Elagabalus facing right, seen from the rear, rendered in the provincial style typical of Decapolis civic coinage. The portrait displays the characteristic imperial wreath and military paludamentum, with the cuirass visible at the shoulder. A Greek legend encircles the bust within the field, reading ΑΥΤ C Μ AΥR ANTONINΥ, identifying the emperor by his adoptive Antonine nomenclature. The flan is irregular and the strike somewhat weak, consistent with provincial bronze production of the Severan period. |
