| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Philip I (Philip the Arab) facing right, presented in three-quarter frontal view, with a balteus (military shoulder strap) across the chest and an aegis adorning the left shoulder. The imperial effigy is rendered in the robust, somewhat stylized provincial manner characteristic of Phrygian civic bronzes of the mid-3rd century AD. The obverse legend encircles the bust, identifying the emperor by his full titulature in Greek characters. |
