| Beschrijving keerzijde | Standing figure of Marsyas depicted in full, facing right, with the body turned dynamically as he hoists a wineskin over his raised left shoulder while extending his right arm outward. The figure is rendered nude or semi-nude in the classical manner, striding with vigor. The reverse legend, combining Latin and Greek characters, identifies the issuing colony and carries the Greek date letters ΑΛΦ corresponding to the Seleucid year 531 (219–220 CE). The field is worn but the general design is clear. |

Caesareia ad Libanum — not to be confused with Caesarea Maritima or the more prolific Caesarea Cappadociae — was a small Phoenician colonial city whose civic coinage under Elagabalus represents nearly the entirety of what numismatists know about its mint activity. The COL designation confirms the city held colonial status, likely granted under the Severan dynasty given the family's deep roots in the Syrian region. Elagabalus himself was elevated to the purple from nearby Emesa in 218 AD, and the surge of provincial loyalty issues from Levantine cities in 219–220 reflects that political proximity.
