| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped bust of Otacilia Severa, diademed, facing right, with elaborately styled hair pinned at the back. The empress is depicted with a stephane or diadem across the top of the head, consistent with her imperial consort status. The legend encircles the bust in Greek characters. The flan is irregular, as typical of provincial bronzes from the Phrygia region during the reign of Philip I. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Dionysus depicted standing facing, with head turned to the right, holding a cluster of grapes in one hand and a thyrsus in the other, the latter wreathed with vine branches. The god leans slightly, resting against a vine, while a panther crouches at his feet, a standard Dionysiac attribute symbolising the god's association with wine, ecstasy, and wild nature. The reverse legend identifying the issuing city encircles the central type. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Dorylaeum, a Phrygian city on the road between Pessinus and Nicaea, struck coins under Philip I during a period when provincial mints across Asia Minor were producing bronze at unusually high volume — likely driven by the emperor's need to fund the peace settlement with Shapur I following the death of Gordian III on the eastern frontier. The Conventus of Synnada administered a cluster of small Phrygian mints, and Dorylaeum's output under Philip remains modest, making individual types from this city genuinely scarce in the reference literature.
