| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Pescennius Niger facing right, with short beard and paludamentum visible at the truncation, rendered in the vigorous provincial style characteristic of the Syrian mint. The portrait displays individualized facial features with deeply cut hair and wreath, consistent with emergency coinage of the civil war period. The surrounding legend is disposed around the full circumference of the flan within a beaded border. |
