| Obverse description | Radiate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Vaballathus facing right, presented in the imperial Roman tradition. The radiate crown with pointed rays frames the portrait in three-quarter view. The legend encircles the effigy in Latin characters. The overall style reflects the Palmyrene workshop's adaptation of Roman imperial coin portraiture, with somewhat provincial engraving characteristics. |
