| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped bust of Otacilia Severa facing right, wearing a stephane diadem, rendered in the provincial style typical of Phrygian mint production under Philip I. The effigy occupies the central field with the Greek obverse legend disposed around the periphery. The portrait, though heavily worn and encrusted, retains the characteristic coiffure and regal bearing associated with imperial consort portraiture of the mid-third century AD. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The homonoia coinage between Hierapolis in Phrygia and Ephesus reflects a formal alliance of civic prestige rather than any military or commercial necessity — these issues were struck to advertise mutual recognition between cities competing aggressively for honorific titles within the Roman provincial hierarchy. Ephesus held the coveted neokoros status multiple times over; Hierapolis was working to cement its own standing within the Conventus of Cibyra. Philip I's reign provided a brief window of relative stability in which such civic diplomacy could be conducted and commemorated in bronze.
