| Obverse description | Laureate head of the emperor Caligula (Gaius Caesar Augustus Germanicus) facing left, rendered in a classical Roman provincial style with finely engraved hair beneath a laurel wreath. The portrait is set within a circular field, with the surrounding legend distributed around the periphery. The workmanship reflects local Cretan die-cutting of the Julio-Claudian period. |
