Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate, draped bust of Caracalla facing right, the emperor depicted with short beard and paludamentum visible on the left shoulder. The effigy is rendered in the characteristic vigorous style of provincial Cypriot coinage, with bold relief. A circular legend in Greek surrounds the portrait within a beaded border.

Aanvullende informatie

The Koinon of Cyprus — the provincial assembly representing Cypriot cities collectively under Roman administration — held the unusual privilege of issuing its own bronze coinage, a concession that reflected both the island's wealth and Rome's administrative pragmatism in the eastern provinces. Under Caracalla, the Koinon struck extensively, likely timed around imperial cult observances at the sanctuary of Aphrodite at Paphos, which remained the religious and political focal point of the island's civic identity throughout the imperial period.

The V.3 reference places this within Vogt's classification of Cypriot provincial issues — a catalog notoriously difficult to work with given inconsistent die-linkage documentation.
