| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Septimius Severus facing right, depicted from the rear in the characteristic three-quarter back view. The effigy displays the emperor's distinctive bearded portrait with laurel wreath, paludamentum, and cuirass visible over the shoulder. A continuous Greek legend encircles the bust along the periphery of the flan. The style is consistent with provincial bronze coinage of the Mysian mint at Cyzicus, rendered with the bold, somewhat coarse engraving typical of the Severan period. |
