| Obverse description | Draped bust of Julia Domna facing right, her characteristic waved and elaborately coiffed hair rendered in the Severan court style. The empress is depicted with diadem and robes falling across the shoulders in layered folds. The Greek legend encircles the bust within a beaded border, and the overall die work reflects the provincial workshop idiom of Caria under the Severan dynasty. |

| Reverse description | Three standing female deities arranged in a triadic composition across the field. To the left, a goddess tentatively identified as Demeter stands facing, head turned right, holding a branch and a long sceptre. At centre, a female deity stands facing, holding a patera in her outstretched right hand and a double axe in her left. To the right, Artemis stands facing with head turned left, holding a patera and a bow. The reverse legend naming the city of Heraclea Salbace runs around the field within a beaded border. |
