Obverse description Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Caracalla facing right, rendered in the characteristic vigorous provincial style. The emperor's effigy displays a radiate laurel wreath atop curly hair, with paludamentum fastened at the right shoulder. The encircling Latin legend runs along the outer border of the flan. The portrait conveys the martial authority associated with Caracalla's imperial imagery on provincial bronzes of the Severan period.
