| Obverse description | Pearl-diademed, draped, and cuirassed imperial bust facing right, with a dot positioned behind the head. The effigy is rendered in the late Roman/early Byzantine style characteristic of 6th-century barbarian imitative coinage. A retrograde or garbled Latin legend encircles the bust within the field, reflecting the issuer's imperfect copying of imperial prototypes. |
