| Obverse description | Draped bust of Livia facing right, rendered in the Alexandrian provincial style. The empress is depicted with an elaborately coiffed hairstyle, visible as a distinctive nodus or rolled arrangement above the forehead. The portrait is set within a plain circular field, without surrounding legend, consistent with Alexandrian bronze coinage of the Augustan period. |

| Reverse description | A circular oak wreath, tied at the base, encloses the regnal year date in the centre of the field. The date formula is rendered in two lines using the Egyptian Greek convention, with the rho-shaped year symbol L above the numeral M (40), denoting regnal year 40 of Augustus. The wreath is rendered with some detail in the leaves despite the generally worn state of the flan. |
