| Obverse description | Laureate head of the emperor Caracalla facing right, rendered in the typical provincial style of the early third century AD. The portrait displays the characteristic youthful features associated with Caracalla's early coinage, with a laurel wreath encircling the head. The surrounding field bears the Greek imperial titulature legend. The flan is irregular and the surfaces show the characteristic green patina of ancient bronze provincial coinage. |
