| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Elagabalus facing right, depicted from a rear three-quarter perspective, the paludamentum visible over the left shoulder. The imperial effigy occupies the central field, rendered in the provincial style typical of the Ephesian mint. The encircling Greek legend reads ΑΥΤ Κ Μ ΑΥΡ ΑΝΤΩΝΕΙΝΟϹ, identifying the emperor by his adoptive titulature as Marcus Aurelius Antoninus. The coin is heavily patinated, with surface corrosion partially obscuring fine detail of the bust. |
