Obverse description Pearl-diademed, draped, and cuirassed bust of the emperor facing right, rendered in the late antique Byzantine imperial style. The effigy is surrounded by a Latin legend reading D N IVSTI - NVS PP AVC, identifying the coin as struck in the name of Justin II. The portrait displays the characteristic frontal stylization of Lombard imitative coinage, with the diadem formed of a string of pearls.

Obverse lettering D N IVSTI - NVS PP AVC
(Translation: Dominus Noster Justin Perpetuus Augustus Our Lord, Justin, perpetual August)
