| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, draped bust of Emperor Caracalla facing right, rendered in the provincial Greek style typical of the Ephesian mint. The imperial effigy displays the characteristic youthful portrait of Caracalla, with a laurel wreath crowning the head. A Greek legend encircles the bust in the field, identifying the emperor by his full imperial titulature. The surface shows heavy patination consistent with prolonged circulation, with areas of bronze disease and earthen encrustation partially obscuring finer details of the relief. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Tyche, the personification of the city's fortune, stands facing left in full figure, rendered in the flowing drapery characteristic of provincial Greek coinage of the Severan period. In her right hand she holds a small cult statue of Artemis of Ephesus — the iconic xoanon depicted frontally, wearing a kalathos (cylindrical crown) and flanked by lateral supports — while her left hand bears a cornucopia symbolising abundance. The encircling reverse legend proclaims Ephesus's prestigious status as a thrice-neocorate city, an honorific title reflecting its custodianship of three imperial cult temples. |
