| Obverse description | Diademed and draped bust of Julia Mamaea facing right, her hair elaborately coiffed and bound with a diadem, the drapery visible at the truncation. The imperial legend encircles the effigy in Greek characters. The flan is irregular and somewhat worn, consistent with provincial bronze coinage of the Severan period. |

| Reverse description | Tyche standing facing, head turned to the left, wearing a turreted crown, clad in long chiton and himation. She holds a rudder in her right hand and a cornucopia in her left arm, emblematic of fortune and abundance. The Greek civic legend of Nicopolis surrounds the figure in the field, distributed around the periphery of the flan. |
