Beschrijving keerzijde Laureate and draped bust of Dusares, the principal deity of the Nabataean pantheon venerated at Bostra, facing right. A regnal year numeral (Δ = year 4, corresponding to 209-210 CE) appears in the right field, serving as a date marker. The surrounding Greek legend names the god and identifies the issuing city. The coin displays typical provincial fabric with irregular flan and worn surfaces consistent with circulation use.

Aanvullende informatie

Dushara — the chief deity of the Nabataeans, rendered here in his Hellenized form — was absorbed into the Roman provincial pantheon following Trajan's annexation of the Nabataean kingdom in 106 AD, when Arabia Petraea was formally constituted and Bostra made its capital. The city continued striking coins in the god's name well into the Severan period, a persistence that reflects how thoroughly Roman Bostra maintained Nabataean religious identity under imperial rule.

This issue dates to the co-regency of Septimius Severus with his sons, a moment of deliberate dynastic consolidation before his death in 211.
