Reverse description Septimius Severus depicted as an equestrian emperor, mounted on a prancing horse galloping to the right, his right arm raised and brandishing a spear in a martial gesture directed at a fallen or retreating enemy below the horse's forelegs. The emperor is shown in military dress with a billowing paludamentum behind him, conveying imperial triumph. The ethnic legend ΙΑϹΕΩΝ is distributed in the field, identifying the issuing city of Iasus in Caria. The scene is enclosed by a beaded border, and the overall composition reflects the propagandistic equestrian imagery characteristic of Severan provincial coinage.
