| Obverse description | Bare head of Emperor Caligula (Gaius Julius Caesar Augustus Germanicus) facing right, rendered in a naturalistic Julio-Claudian style with short, finely engraved hair swept forward over the brow. The portrait displays the characteristic sharp facial features associated with Caligula's provincial coinage. The Greek legend ΓΑΙΟϹ ϹΕΒΑϹΤΟϹ (Gaius Augustus) is partially visible in the field to the right of the effigy. The coin exhibits a green-brown patina consistent with provincial bronze coinage of Asia Minor. |
