| Aversbeschreibung | Draped bust of Julia Domna facing right, her hair elaborately waved and gathered into a bun at the nape of the neck, a characteristic Severan coiffure. The effigy is rendered in profile with fine drapery visible at the shoulder. The Latin legend encircles the bust within the field, reading from left to right. The flan is irregular, as is typical of provincial bronze issues of this period. |

| Reversbeschreibung | Venus depicted nude, standing facing with head turned to the right, her right arm raised to her breast in a modest gesture. The goddess is rendered in the classical Aphrodite pudica tradition, with the figure occupying the central field of the coin. The colonial Latin legend surrounds the type, arranged around the periphery of the flan. A dotted border is visible on the inner rim, a common decorative feature of Apamean provincial bronzes. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Apamea in Bithynia held the status of a Roman colony — Colonia Iulia Concordia Apamea, the expansion behind the C I C A of this coin's legend — a distinction that granted the city the right to produce its own bronze coinage under the formula D D, decreto decurionum, meaning the city council formally authorized each issue. That bureaucratic stamp of local senatorial approval was not ceremonial; it was the legal mechanism by which a colony distinguished its autonomous bronze production from imperial mint output.
Septimius Severus consolidated colonial loyalties aggressively in the early years of his reign, and cities like Apamea responded with prolific civic bronze programs.
