| Obverse description | Radiate and cuirassed bust of Severus II as Caesar facing right, with a short beard and wearing a heavily draped paludamentum over the cuirass, rendered in the late Tetrarchic style characterized by bold, somewhat schematic modeling. The portrait conveys imperial authority through its rigid frontality and military attire. The circumferential Latin legend reads SEVERVS NOB C, identifying the emperor as Flavius Valerius Severus in his capacity as junior co-ruler. The flan is irregular and slightly worn, with surfaces exhibiting a dark brown patina consistent with prolonged burial. |
