The effigy displays the emperor in military dress with paludamentum visible at the shoulder.

| Reverse description | Nike, the goddess of victory, depicted advancing briskly to the left in full stride, her drapery billowing behind her. She holds a tall palm branch in her extended right hand and carries a wreath or basket in her left hand. The civic ethnic legend ΚΙΒΥΡΑΤΩΝ is distributed around the field, identifying the issuing city of Cibyra in Phrygia. The overall composition follows standard provincial iconographic conventions of the Severan era. |
