| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Philip I (Philip the Arab) facing right, seen from the rear, with paludamentum visible at the shoulder. The emperor is portrayed with a bearded visage in the characteristic style of Alexandrian provincial coinage. The surrounding Greek legend reads Α Κ Μ ΙΟΥ ΦΙΛΙΠΠΟϹ ΕΥϹΕ(Β), identifying the emperor with his imperial titulature. The flan is irregular in shape, typical of billon tetradrachms struck at the Alexandrian mint during the third century AD. |
