| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Philip I (the Arab) facing right, portrayed with characteristic short beard, the paludamentum visible over the left shoulder and the cuirass rendered in relief across the chest. The effigy is presented in three-quarter rear view, a distinctive compositional choice common in Severan and later provincial bronzes. The Greek imperial titulature encircles the portrait in a continuous legend around the periphery of the flan. |
