| Obverse description | Radiate head of Emperor Elagabalus facing right, depicted with a radiate crown of solar rays, the neck draped. The Greek imperial titulature legend runs around the periphery of the flan. The coin bears a pierced hole in the upper left field, indicating secondary use as a pendant or amulet in antiquity. The portrait reflects the provincial die-cutting style characteristic of the Bostra mint under the Severan dynasty. |
