| Beschrijving keerzijde | Two togated figures, identified as Caracalla and Geta, stand facing one another in the centre of the field, clasping right hands in a gesture of concordia. Both princes are depicted in full-length toga, rendered with careful drapery detail. The abbreviation D D appears in the lower central field, denoting the authority of the local decurions. The encircling colonial legend frames the scene along the outer border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Apamea in Bithynia held the status of a Roman colony — an unusual distinction for a Greek city of the region — and this coin's reverse legend COL IVL CONC reflects that colonial identity directly, referencing the Colonia Iulia Concordia established under Julius Caesar or early Augustan settlement. The abbreviation D D (decreto decurionum) indicates the issue was authorized by the local senate, meaning this bronze was a civic decision, not an imperial directive.
Severus's reign saw a marked expansion of provincial bronze coinage as he cultivated loyalty across the eastern cities following his victory in the civil wars of 193–197.
