| 表面の銘文 | ΑΥΤ Κ Μ ΑΥΡ ΑΝΤωΝΙΝΟϹ (Translation: Emperor Caesar Marcus Aurelius Antoninus) |
| 裏面の説明 | A tall cypress tree occupies the central field, flanked by a bull standing right and a lion standing left, the two animals confronted across the tree. Behind the bull appears a military standard in the form of an outstretched hand (manus), while a vexillum standard stands behind the lion. Above the lion's head, a crescent is depicted in the upper field. These emblems are characteristic civic and religious symbols of Aradus, reflecting the city's coinage traditions under the Severan dynasty. The reverse composition is well-centered, with the date legend positioned in the exergue and field areas. |

Aradus was one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the ancient world, an island settlement off the Syrian coast that had maintained its own civic coinage almost without interruption since the Seleucid period. When Elagabalus was proclaimed emperor by the legions at nearby Raphana in 218 AD — he was fourteen years old and had been serving as a priest of the sun god at Emesa — the city struck bronze issues almost immediately, reflecting both its proximity to the proclamation site and its long habit of civic autonomy in coinage.
