| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate and cuirassed bust of Emperor Elagabalus facing right, depicted in three-quarter frontal view, with the paludamentum visible at the shoulder. The imperial effigy is rendered in the provincial style characteristic of Phrygian civic coinage, with the laureate wreath clearly distinguishing the imperial portrait. A beaded border frames the obverse field, and the Greek legend runs around the periphery identifying the emperor by his adoptive Antonine nomenclature. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Apamea in Phrygia — not to be confused with the far better-known Apamea on the Orontes — was a significant conventus center under Roman administration, one of the assize districts where the governor periodically held court. The magistrate name preserved in the legend, readable as Lucius Ma... Seugr..., is partially abraded across most known specimens, making full prosopographical identification elusive. Elagabalus's brief, chaotic reign generated considerable provincial bronze activity as cities competed for imperial favor following the dynastic upheaval of 218.
The ΤΟ Β in the legend denotes a second term in office for the sitting magistrate — a detail that helps anchor at least relative chronology within the four-year reign.
