| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Geta facing right, with drapery visible on the left shoulder, rendered in the provincial style characteristic of Bithynian mint output of the Severan period. The portrait displays youthful features consistent with Geta's representations prior to his elevation to co-emperor. The encircling Greek legend occupies the field around the bust. The flan is irregular and slightly worn at the edges, typical of hammered provincial bronze coinage of this era. |
