Beschrijving voorzijde Bare head of Tiberius as Caesar facing right, with naturalistic portrait features typical of early Julio-Claudian provincial coinage. The legend CORINTHI TI CAESAR is disposed around the bust in Latin characters. The flan is irregular in outline, as is characteristic of Roman provincial bronze coinage from Corinth of this period. The portrait style reflects the official Augustan-era iconography adapted for colonial issues.

Beschrijving keerzijde A wreath of celery or parsley (Apium graveolens), the plant sacred to the Isthmian Games and emblematic of Corinth, encircling a multi-line Latin inscription naming the two duoviri responsible for the issue. The wreath occupies the border of the coin, while the magistrates' names fill the central field in four lines. The celery wreath is a distinctive emblem of Corinthian colonial coinage throughout the Augustan and Tiberian periods.
