| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Philip II as Caesar facing right, rendered from a three-quarter rear perspective, with the paludamentum visible over the left shoulder. The effigy displays the youthful features characteristic of Philip II's portraiture on provincial coinage. The circular Greek legend surrounds the bust in the field. |
