| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Trajan Decius facing right, rendered in three-quarter view from the rear, with paludamentum visible over the cuirass. The portrait is set within a dotted border and surrounded by the imperial Greek legend. The engraving reflects the provincial workshop style typical of the Samian mint under the mid-third century imperial coinage. |
