| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed, draped and cuirassed bust of Geta as Caesar facing right, with youthful features and short cropped hair rendered in fine relief. The legend in Greek characters curves around the bust in the field. The portrait reflects the iconographic conventions of provincial bronze coinage of the Severan period, with paludamentum visible at the left shoulder. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Apameia in Phrygia was among the most prolific civic minting authorities in Asia Minor during the Severan period, striking bronze for local circulation while the imperial mints handled precious metals. Geta's tenure as Caesar — before his elevation to co-Augustus in 209 and subsequent murder by Caracalla in 212 — provides the narrow window for this issue.
The diassarion denomination, worth two asses in the provincial bronze hierarchy, was the workhorse of Phrygian civic exchange.
