| Obverse description | Bare-headed, draped and cuirassed bust of Geta as Caesar, facing right and seen from the front, rendered in the provincial Alexandrian style. The youthful effigy displays short hair and a slightly forward-tilted head characteristic of early portraits of Geta. The circular Greek legend surrounding the bust identifies the subject as Publius Septimius Geta Caesar. The coin shows green patination consistent with Egyptian provincial bronze coinage. |

| Reverse description | Homonoia (Concordia) standing facing, head turned to left, robed in chiton and himation, holding a cornucopiae in her left arm. The figure is rendered in the typical Alexandrian provincial style, with the Greek legend distributed around the field. The regnal year date L ΙΒ (Year 12) appears prominently, situating the issue within the reign of Septimius Severus and dating it to the Alexandrian year 203–204 CE. |
