| Obverse description | Barbaric imitation bust facing right, depicted with an animal (bear) head in place of the emperor's effigy, draped and cuirassed in the manner of late Roman imperial portraiture. The bust is surrounded by a degenerate, nonsensical Latin legend derived from an imperial prototype but rendered in the hand of a provincial or barbarian die-cutter unfamiliar with the original inscription. The overall style is crude and schematic, characteristic of late 4th- to early 5th-century Germanic imitative coinage. |
