| Obverse description | Draped bust of Julia Maesa facing right, her hair elaborately waved and bound with a diadem, rendered in the provincial style typical of Aeolian mint workshops of the Severan period. The effigy is set within a circular field with the Greek legend disposed around the periphery. The portrait shows the characteristic features associated with Julia Maesa's numismatic representations, including the distinctive coiffure and draped paludamentum at the shoulder. The strike is moderately well-centred on a slightly irregular flan, with some surface granularity consistent with bronze provincial issues of this era. |
