| Obverse description | Diademed head of Venus facing right, her hair rendered in wavy locks gathered at the nape, the diadem clearly delineated across the crown. The portrait is executed in a Hellenistic style consistent with Greek colonial coinage of southern Gaul. The abbreviated legend AI MAI appears in the field, likely referencing a local magistrate's name. The flan is irregular and slightly dumpy, characteristic of Gallo-Greek bronze issues of this period. |
