| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed, draped and cuirassed bust of Geta as Caesar facing left, seen from the front, with youthful portrait features and curly hair rendered in the provincial Greek style. The paludamentum is visible at the shoulder, and the cuirass is indicated below. The encircling Greek legend names the prince as Lucius Septimius Geta Caesar. The flan is broad and irregular, typical of the large civic bronzes struck at Mytilene under the Severan dynasty. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Mytilene, the principal city of Lesbos, retained remarkable autonomy under Roman rule and continued issuing civic bronze well into the Severan period. The magistrate named in this legend — Pouleios Leonteus, serving as strategus — is one of several local officials whose names appear across the Mytilenaean series, providing a rough internal chronology that numismatists have used to sequence issues when imperial dating alone proves insufficient.
The Conventus of Pergamum administered a broad swath of western Asia Minor, but individual cities within it maintained distinct civic identities in their coinage. Mytilene's issues are notably large in module for the region.
