| Obverse description | Youthful bare head of Commodus facing right, with traces of an aegis at the truncation, the aegis featuring a Medusa head in relief. The portrait is rendered in the idealised Antonine style with softly modelled facial features befitting a young Caesar. The obverse legend encircles the bust in Greek characters, identifying the subject as Lucius Aurelius Commodus Caesar. |
