| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Philip I (Philippus Arabs) facing right, rendered in the provincial style characteristic of the Antiochene mint. The emperor is depicted wearing a radiate-style laurel wreath and military paludamentum fastened at the shoulder, with visible armor detailing on the cuirass. The portrait is boldly struck in high relief with strong facial features. The circular Greek legend surrounds the bust, reading ΑΥΤΟΚ Κ Μ ΙΟΥΛΙ ΦΙΛΙΠΠΟϹ ϹƐΒ, identifying the emperor by his full titulature. |
