| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate and cuirassed bust of Emperor Severus Alexander facing left, with an eagle-tipped sceptre resting on his right shoulder and a decorated shield visible in the field. The effigy is rendered in the provincial style typical of Mesopotamian civic coinage of the Severan period. The obverse legend encircles the bust in Greek characters, identifying the emperor by his imperial titulature. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Tyche of the city seated on a rocky outcrop, facing left, holding ears of corn in her extended hand, symbolising civic prosperity. At her feet stands a lighted altar, and below in the exergue a river god swims leftward, personifying the local waterway associated with Carrhae. The reverse legend in Greek identifies the city as a metropolis and colony of the Carrhaeans, arranged around the central device in a format characteristic of Severan-era provincial bronze coinage from Mesopotamia. |
