| Obverse description | Laureate, draped bust of Caracalla facing right, rendered in the provincial style typical of Ephesian bronze coinage. The portrait displays the characteristic youthful features of Caracalla, with the laurel wreath clearly indicated. The encircling Greek legend runs around the periphery of the flan, partially visible despite surface encrustation. The obverse carries an erroneous attribution to Septimius Severus in the item name, while the legend and portrait type identify the emperor as Caracalla (Antoninus) with the epithet Pius Augustus. |
