| Obverse description | Laureate, draped and cuirassed bust of Geta facing right, rendered in the provincial style typical of Bithynian civic coinage. The portrait displays the characteristic features of the young Caesar, with the laureate wreath clearly delineated around the head. The Greek imperial legend encircles the bust within the field, running along the periphery of the flan. The style is consistent with civic bronze coinage struck at Prusa ad Olympum during the Severan period. |
