| Obverse description | Confronted busts of Emperor Trajan Decius and his son Herennius Etruscus: to the left, the radiate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Decius facing right as seen from the front; to the right, the bare-headed, draped, and cuirassed bust of Etruscus facing right as seen from the rear. The arrangement presents a classic provincial double-portrait type emphasizing dynastic continuity. The encircling Greek legend names both rulers with their imperial titles. |
