| Reversbeschreibung | A tripod cauldron with three legs depicted centrally in the field, its upper vessel surmounted by a decorative finial, with a serpent entwined around the structure — an iconographic motif closely associated with Apollo and oracular sanctuaries. The composition fills the flan boldly in the provincial manner. The ethnic legend ΚΑΛΧΑΔΟΝΙΩΝ is disposed around the periphery of the reverse, attributing the issue to the city of Chalcedon in Bithynia. The overall style is consistent with civic bronze coinage struck under Roman imperial authority in the early 3rd century AD. |

Calchedon — the city Megarian colonists founded on the Asian shore of the Bosporus in the 7th century BC — was famously mocked by the Delphic oracle as the "city of the blind," for having overlooked the far superior site that would become Byzantium directly opposite. Under Roman provincial administration it remained a secondary settlement, its coins issued sporadically and in modest quantities. Dies for Bithynian civic bronzes of this period were often shared or reused across short reigns, making the attribution of individual specimens to Elagabalus's four-year rule dependent almost entirely on legend reading.
