| Obverse description | Laureate head of Emperor Septimius Severus facing right, rendered in the provincial style characteristic of Alexandrian coinage. The portrait displays the emperor's distinctive beard and laureate wreath, with the surrounding Greek legend abbreviated around the periphery of the flan. The coin exhibits the irregular flan shape typical of Egyptian provincial bronze issues of this period. The obverse legend references the emperor's full titulature including his honorific epithets Arabicus and Adiabenicus. |
