Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate and cuirassed bust of Emperor Caracalla facing right, depicted from the rear, conveying a three-quarter back view characteristic of certain provincial Roman die-cutters. The emperor's effigy is rendered in moderately high relief, with the laurel wreath and segmented cuirass visible despite the coin's heavily worn and encrusted surfaces. The obverse legend M ANTONINVS PIVS encircles the bust, identifying the emperor by his official nomenclature. The style is consistent with the provincial workshops of the Troad region active during the Severan period.

Beschrijving keerzijde Standing figure of Marsyas depicted nude, facing right, his right arm raised aloft in a gesture of exultation, with a wineskin draped over his left shoulder. The figure stands upon a rectangular base or plinth, a common iconographic convention for cult statues on Roman provincial coinage of Alexandria Troas, where the statue of Marsyas held particular civic significance as a symbol of colonial libertas. The reverse legend COL ALEXAN AVG, distributed around the field, identifies the issuing city as Colonia Alexandria Augusta. The relief, though worn, retains the essential contours of the canonical Marsyas type well attested in the coinage of this mint.
