| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed, draped and cuirassed bust of Diadumenian facing right, rendered from a rear perspective, conveying a three-quarter back view typical of provincial Severan-era portraiture. The youthful effigy displays characteristic short hair and military attire. The encircling Greek legend names the caesar in the nominative form, distributed around the bust within the coin's field. |

Amisus enjoyed the status of a free city — ΕΛΕΥΘΕΡΑϹ, as the legend proudly states — a privilege confirmed under Pompey's reorganization of Pontus in 64 BC and maintained through successive imperial administrations. The civic era date ϹΜΘ (249) anchors this coin to the single turbulent year of Macrinus, the first emperor never to have served in the Senate and the first of non-senatorial, equestrian background to reach the purple. His reign collapsed within fourteen months after Elagabalus's partisans defeated him at the Battle of Antioch in June 218.
