| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Septimius Severus facing right, depicted from a rear three-quarter perspective, presenting the emperor in full imperial military regalia. The legend encircles the bust in Greek characters, identifying the emperor by his titles. The portraiture reflects the robust, authoritative style characteristic of Severan provincial coinage from Asia Minor, with careful attention to the emperor's beard and facial features. The overall composition is typical of large-module civic bronzes struck in the conventus of Sardis during the late second to early third century AD. |
