| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Caracalla facing right, seen from the front, rendered in a detailed provincial style characteristic of Carian civic coinage. The emperor's youthful effigy is depicted with curled hair beneath the laurel wreath, the paludamentum fastened at the shoulder, and the cuirass visible at the chest. A beaded border frames the design. The Greek legend encircles the bust along the periphery of the flan. |
