| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Trajan Decius facing right, depicted from the rear in the so-called 'heroic' three-quarter perspective typical of late provincial issues. The emperor's portrait is rendered with characteristic realism, showing a mature, bearded effigy with finely detailed drapery and cuirass visible at the truncation. A beaded border frames the field. The Greek imperial legend runs around the periphery. |
