Obverse description Radiate head of Emperor Septimius Severus facing right, depicted with characteristic curled beard and hair rendered in the Severan portrait style. The imperial effigy is positioned centrally within the coin's field, with the radiate crown clearly distinguishing the divine or solar association of the ruler. The encircling Greek legend runs along the periphery, identifying the emperor by his full titulature. The flan is irregular and the surfaces show considerable wear and patination consistent with provincial bronze coinage of the period.
