Obverse description Bearded, diademed, and draped bust of Julian II facing right, rendered in a somewhat barbarous style characteristic of Germanic imitative issues. The emperor's features are boldly struck with a pronounced beard, distinguishing this portrait from earlier clean-shaven imperial types. A legend surrounds the bust in a degenerate rendering of the standard Julianean titulature. The overall workmanship reflects a provincial or barbarian hand imitating official Lugdunum prototypes.
