| Obverse description | Bare head of the emperor Caligula facing right, portrayed in an austere, unidealized style characteristic of early Julio-Claudian provincial coinage. The effigy is set within a circular Latin legend reading C CAESAR AVG GERM EX D D AN LXXXII C I F, referencing the colonial titulature of Sinope (Colonia Iulia Felix). The portrait displays well-defined facial features with a prominent brow, rendered in moderately high relief on an irregular flan. |
