| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Severus Alexander facing right, depicted from a rear three-quarter perspective, presenting a bold and authoritative military portrait characteristic of early Severan provincial coinage. The obverse legend is disposed in a circular arrangement around the bust within the field. The portrait exhibits the conventional provincial die-cutting style associated with the Lydian conventus workshops, with clear delineation of the paludamentum and lorica. |
