| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed, draped and cuirassed bust of Maximus (Caesar) facing right, depicted from the rear in three-quarter view, with paludamentum visible over the left shoulder and lorica segmentata detailing across the chest. The effigy is rendered in the provincial style typical of Pontic civic coinage of the mid-third century AD. A Greek legend encircles the bust within the field, identifying the subject as Caesar Gaius Julius Verus Maximus Augustus. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | An Amazon stands facing left in the field, reaching upward to pluck apples from a fruiting tree associated with the myth of the Hesperides; at her feet rests a pelta, the characteristic crescent-shaped shield emblematic of Amazonian iconography. The composition alludes to the legendary Pontic connection to the Amazons, a recurrent mythological theme on the civic coinage of Amisus. The reverse legend appears in two lines around the central design, giving the city's name and its status as a free city, along with a partially legible regnal year. |
