| Obverse description | Bare or radiate head of Emperor Severus Alexander facing right, rendered in the provincial Greek style typical of Bithynian civic coinage. The portrait displays the youthful features characteristic of this emperor, with the legend arranged around the periphery of the flan. The coin exhibits a heavily patinated surface with some areas of corrosion consistent with its age and bronze composition. A circular Greek legend surrounds the imperial effigy in the field. |
