| Aversbeschreibung | Draped bust of Otacilia Severa facing right, adorned with a diadem, rendered in the imperial portrait style typical of mid-third century Roman provincial coinage. The effigy displays the empress's characteristic features with hair elaborately arranged in ridged waves drawn back to a bun. The encircling Latin legend reads MARCIA OTACILIA SEVERA AVG, identifying the Augusta consort of Philip I. The flan shows characteristic irregular edges consistent with hammered provincial bronze production. |

| Reversbeschreibung | The personification of Dacia seated left upon a rocky outcrop, wearing the distinctive pointed Dacian cap (pilleus), her figure draped in provincial costume. She holds ears of corn in her right hand and a curved falx or sword in her left, emblematic of the province's agricultural and martial character. Flanking the seated figure are two legionary vexilla, that on the left inscribed with V and surmounted by an eagle head, that on the right inscribed XIII and surmounted by a lion head, referencing Legio V Macedonica and Legio XIII Gemina, the two legions garrisoned in Dacia. The circumferential legend and field inscription PROVINCIA DACIA AN II denote the second year of the Dacian provincial era coinage series. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Provincia Dacia was an unusual administrative creation — a grouping of three Dacian provinces consolidated under Gordian III around 240 AD specifically to streamline military and fiscal governance of the Danube frontier. The provincial coinage issued from this arrangement used its own dating system, the AN series, making chronology unusually precise for a provincial bronze. AN II places this piece in 247–248, the second year of the era, during Philip I's reign.
Philip's particular interest in the Danubian provinces was not incidental — he was himself from the region of Arabia Petraea but had strong military and political ties to the Danube legions that brought him to power after Gordian III's death in 244.
