| Obverse description | Bare head of Emperor Claudius facing left, with naturalistic portraiture characteristic of early imperial provincial coinage. The emperor is depicted with short, slightly tousled hair and a draped shoulder visible at the bust truncation. A circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait, reading TI CLAVDIVS CAESAR AVG GERMANICVS, distributed around the full circumference of the flan. The die work is bold and the relief high, consistent with the Augustan colonial mint tradition at Patras. |
