| Obverse description | Laureate, draped and cuirassed bust of Emperor Philip I (Philip the Arab) facing right, depicted from the rear in the characteristic three-quarter back view typical of late Severan and Gordian-era provincial coinage. The emperor's paludamentum and segmented cuirass are rendered with fine engraved detail at the shoulder and chest. The circular legend, inscribed in Greek characters, runs along the beaded border surrounding the effigy. |
