| Obverse description | Laureate, draped and cuirassed bust of Emperor Severus Alexander facing right, seen from the rear, with the imperial effigy rendered in the typical provincial style of the Mysian mint at Cyzicus. The obverse legend circles the bust, identifying the emperor by his full titulature in Greek characters. The portrait displays the characteristic short-cropped hair and youthful features associated with Severus Alexander's official iconography. |
