| Reverse description | Jugate busts of Gaius Caesar and Lucius Caesar facing right, presented side by side in the manner typical of Augustan dynastic imagery honoring the imperial heirs. The two youthful portraits are rendered in profile, the foremost slightly overlapping the other. The abbreviated Latin legend EX D D appears in the field, standing for Ex Decreto Decurionum, indicating the coin was issued by authority of the local colonial senate. The flat, worn flan exhibits an irregular edge and areas of green patination. |
