| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Septimius Severus facing right, depicted from behind to show the rear of the cuirass in a characteristic provincial rendering. The emperor's portrait displays the characteristic short beard and strong features associated with Severan coinage. The Latin legend SEVERVS PIVS AVG is disposed around the periphery of the flan. The flan is irregular and the surfaces show a dark olive-brown patina consistent with provincial bronze issues of the Severan period. |
