| Obverse description | Laureate head of Caesar (Julius Caesar or Augustus as Caesar) facing right, rendered in the provincial Roman style characteristic of Pontic colonial coinage. The effigy displays a wreathed portrait with naturalistic facial features, the laurel wreath clearly indicated across the brow. The surrounding legend reads C I F AN XXIII, referencing the colonial designation Colonia Iulia Felix and the year of the colony. The flan is irregular and slightly uneven, consistent with hand-struck provincial bronze production of the Augustan period. |
