| Obverse description | Laureate, draped and cuirassed bust of Emperor Philip I (Philip the Arab) facing right, rendered in three-quarter rear view, with paludamentum fastened at the right shoulder and pteryges visible at the lower truncation. The imperial effigy is boldly modelled in high relief, characteristic of provincial bronze coinage of the mid-third century. A beaded inner border frames the field, with the Greek legend distributed around the periphery. |
