| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Septimius Severus facing right, viewed from the rear, rendered in the provincial Greek style characteristic of the Conventus of Smyrna. The emperor's portrait emphasizes military authority through the combination of the imperial laurel wreath and cuirass. The obverse legend encircles the bust in Greek characters, identifying the emperor with his full titulature. The bust type, with the rear-view drapery detail, is consistent with Severan-era provincial coinage from Asia Minor. |
