| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Caracalla facing right, depicted from the rear in the characteristic three-quarter back view typical of provincial Severan coinage. The paludamentum is visible over the left shoulder, and the cuirass shows standard military detailing. A Greek legend encircles the effigy in the field, identifying the emperor by his official titulature. The flan surface exhibits typical provincial wear with an olive-green patina. |
