| Obverse description | Laureate and cuirassed bust of Emperor Severus Alexander facing right, rendered in three-quarter frontal perspective, with the paludamentum fastened at the shoulder visible beneath the armour. The imperial effigy displays characteristic youthful features with a wreath of laurel leaves crowning the head. The encircling Greek legend runs along the periphery of the flan, reading from left to right around the bust. |
