| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Caracalla facing right, depicted from the rear, with the paludamentum visible over the left shoulder and segmented plate armour rendered in fine relief. The emperor's thick beard and characteristic stern physiognomy are rendered with notable plasticity. The Greek imperial titulature legend runs around the periphery within a beaded border. |

| Reverse description | Artemis Anaïtis standing facing, veiled and fully draped in a long chiton and himation, her arms extended outward at her sides with palms open in the orans gesture, a distinctive iconographic attribute of the Anatolian goddess. The figure is enveloped by a large veil arching overhead, and her hair falls in long ringlets framing her face. The multi-line Greek legend of the local magistrates surrounds the figure within a beaded border. |
