Beschrijving voorzijde Bare or laureate head of Geta facing right, depicted in the Roman imperial portrait style typical of the Severan period. The effigy displays strong facial features rendered in relief, with the legend encircling the bust in the field. The flan is irregular and the surfaces show the characteristic patina of a provincial bronze issue. The portrait follows the conventional representation of Geta as Caesar or Augustus, with the legend IMP C GETA AVG distributed around the periphery.

Beschrijving keerzijde The she-wolf standing to the right, suckling the twins Romulus and Remus who are depicted beneath her, evoking the legendary foundation of Rome and asserting the Roman colonial identity of Apamea. The composition is rendered in low relief on the irregular bronze flan, with the abbreviated colonial legend distributed in the field above and below the central type. The image is a direct reference to the Lupa Romana, a canonical symbol on Roman provincial coinage of colonies claiming descent from Rome. The legend C I C A D D appears around or beside the type, affirming the city's status as a Julian colony governed by a council of decurions.
