Obverse description Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Septimius Severus facing right, depicted from the rear in three-quarter view, a presentation style characteristic of provincial coinage of the Severan period. The imperial portrait conveys martial authority through the cuirass, while the laurel wreath denotes his divine-civic honors. The surrounding legend in Greek identifies the emperor by his full titulature. The portrait is rendered in the bold, high-relief style typical of Lydian civic bronzes of this era.
