| Obverse description | Bare-headed, draped and cuirassed bust of Philip II as Caesar facing right, rendered three-quarters from the rear in the characteristic provincial style. The portrait shows the youthful features of the prince, with visible paludamentum draping over the cuirass. The encircling Greek legend names the Caesar in full, disposed around the bust in the field. |
