| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate and draped bust of Septimius Severus facing right, depicted with characteristic curled beard and hair. The emperor's effigy is rendered in the provincial style typical of Mesopotamian colonial issues, with bold high relief. The Greek legend runs around the periphery of the flan. The portrait displays the mature iconography associated with Severus's reign, consistent with colonial civic coinage of Carrhae. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Dionysus seated left upon a throne or rocky outcrop, holding ears of corn and a bunch of grapes in his extended hand, and a thyrsus in the other. To the right of the figure, a crescent rests atop a globe, a symbol closely associated with the cult and civic identity of Carrhae, reflecting the city's veneration of the moon god Sin. The composition blends Hellenistic divine iconography with local religious symbolism characteristic of this colonial Mesopotamian mint. |
