| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Elagabalus facing right, depicted from the rear in three-quarter view, presenting the emperor in full imperial military attire. The obverse legend surrounds the effigy, reading ΑΥΤ Κ Μ ΑΥΡ ΑΝΤΩΝΕΙΝΟϹ, identifying him as Autocrator Caesar Marcus Aurelius Antoninus. The portrait follows the standard provincial die-cutting conventions of the Ephesian mint during the Severan period, with characteristic bold relief. The coin displays a heavy green patina consistent with prolonged burial, partially obscuring the finer details of the die work. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Artemis, patron goddess of Ephesus, depicted striding energetically to the right in hunting aspect, her right hand raised to draw an arrow from the quiver slung at her shoulder, her left hand holding a bow. A hound runs at full pace to the right in the lower field, a characteristic attribute of the goddess in her role as divine huntress. The reverse legend ΕΦΕϹΙΩΝ ΠΡΩΤΩΝ ΑϹΙΑϹ, meaning 'of the Ephesians, First of Asia,' proclaims the city's prestigious neokorate status and primacy among the cities of the Asian conventus. The composition reflects the high civic pride of Ephesus and the iconographic tradition of Artemis Ephesia in her hunting guise on provincial bronze coinage. |
