| Obverse description | Confronted draped and cuirassed busts of Caracalla, laureate, and Geta facing one another across the field, with a smaller bust of Septimius Severus visible below between them. The Greek legend is disposed around the periphery, naming both Antoninus (Caracalla) and Septimius Geta Caesar. The portrait style is consistent with the provincial bronze coinage of Caria under the Severan dynasty. |
