| Obverse description | Confronted jugate busts of Caracalla (left) and Geta (right), each seen from behind, with Caracalla laureate, draped, and cuirassed; the composition presents both imperial heirs in a rare facing arrangement emphasizing dynastic unity. The peripheral obverse legend encircles the busts in Greek characters, identifying the co-princes by their imperial titles. |

| Reverse description | Hecate, the chthonic deity closely associated with Stratonicea, stands facing with head turned to the left, wearing a kalathos (basket crown) atop her head. She holds a patera in her right hand and a lighted torch in her left, with a flaming altar placed at her feet before her. The reverse legend in Greek runs around the periphery of the field, naming the local magistrate Philon and identifying the civic authority of the Stratoniceans. |
