| Reverse description | Bare laureate head of Gaius Caesar facing right, struck in the Hellenistic civic tradition of the Ionian mint at Magnesia ad Maeandrum. The legend ΓΑΙΟΣ ΜΑΓΝΗΤΩΝ is distributed in the field around the portrait, reading 'Gaius, of the Magnetes,' identifying both the honoree and the issuing civic authority. The portrait reflects the youthful features associated with Gaius as heir-designate to Augustus. The workmanship is consistent with provincial bronze issues of the Conventus of Miletus. |
