Obverse description Draped bust of Julia Domna facing right, her hair elaborately waved and coiled at the nape in the characteristic Severan style. The effigy is rendered in the provincial tradition, with the drapery indicated across the truncation. The Greek legend ΙΟΥΛΙΑ ΔΟΜΝΑ ϹΕ curves around the bust within the field.

Reverse description Hygieia, goddess of health, depicted standing and facing right in long robes, extending a patera in her right hand to feed a large serpent coiling upward before her. The composition reflects the standard Hellenistic iconographic type for Hygieia common to Bithynian provincial coinage. The encircling Greek ethnic legend ΙΟΥΛΙΟΠΟΛΕΙΤΩΝ fills the field around the figure.
