| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Caracalla facing right, rendered in three-quarter view from the rear, with the paludamentum (military cloak) draped over the left shoulder and the cuirass decorated with pteryges visible at the shoulder. The portrait displays the characteristic youthful features of Caracalla, with short curly hair beneath the laurel wreath and a light beard. The Greek imperial titulature legend surrounds the bust, running along the periphery of the flan. The die engraving is bold and well-modelled, consistent with the high-quality civic coinage produced at Laodicea ad Lycum during the Severan period. |
