| Reverse description | Two togate figures, identified as Caracalla and Geta, standing facing one another and clasping right hands (dextrarum iunctio) over a small flaming altar set on a low base between them. Both figures are rendered in full-length toga, conveying civic and dynastic concordia. The legend encircles the scene, with ΚΡΗΤΙΕΩΝ inscribed in the exergue below the ground line. The composition emphasises the harmony and shared rule of the two imperial brothers, a prominent theme in Severan provincial coinage. |
