| Obverse description | Diademed, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Justinian I facing right, rendered in the frontal-turning late antique style characteristic of early Byzantine coinage. The emperor's diadem is visible above the brow, and the paludamentum (military cloak) is fastened at the right shoulder over the cuirass. The obverse legend D N IVSTINIANVS P P AVG runs along the coin's periphery, partially obscured by flan irregularities. The portrait exhibits bold, stylized relief typical of the Antioch mint workshops of the early Justinianic period. A dotted border frames the design. |
