Obverse description Laureate head of Septimius Severus facing right, with curled hair and short beard rendered in the characteristic style of provincial coinage of the Pergamene conventus. The imperial legend encircles the bust in Greek characters within the field. The portrait displays the emperor's distinctive physiognomy with a strong jaw and layered laurel wreath, typical of issues struck for Came during his reign.

Reverse description Tyche standing facing, head turned to left, draped in a long chiton and himation, holding a ship's rudder in her right hand and a cornucopia in her left arm. The figure occupies the central field with the ethnic legend distributed in the surrounding field. The composition follows the standard civic reverse type common to cities of the Pergamene conventus under the Severan dynasty.
