| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Septimius Severus facing right, depicted from the rear in a three-quarter perspective, conveying a sense of imperial martial authority. The obverse legend, rendered in Greek majuscules, encircles the effigy and identifies the emperor by his full titulature. The portrait exhibits the characteristically precise die-engraving typical of Ionian civic bronzes of the Severan period. |
