Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Elagabalus facing right, with finely engraved hair beneath the laurel wreath and paludamentum visible at the shoulder. The imperial effigy is rendered in the characteristic Severan artistic style, with individualized portraiture typical of the Antiochene mint. The surrounding Greek legend reads AVT K M A ANTWNEINOC CEB, identifying the emperor by his adopted dynastic name Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustus. The flan is irregular in shape, as is common for hammered provincial coinage of this period.

Beschrijving keerzijde A large eagle stands facing, with wings spread and head turned to the left, rendered in bold high relief characteristic of Antiochene tetradrachm coinage. The eagle stands on a palm branch, a symbol of victory and divine favor frequently employed at the Syrian mint. The Greek legend ΔHMAPX EΞ YΠATO B encircles the field, referencing the emperor's tribunician and consular powers, while the denomination mark Δ-E appears in the field to either side of the eagle. The composition follows the well-established Syro-Phoenician tetradrachm tradition inaugurated under the Severan dynasty.
