| Obverse description | Radiate and cuirassed bust of Emperor Trajan Decius facing right, depicted in three-quarter frontal view, wearing a radiate crown and military cuirass with visible pteryges. The portrait displays the characteristic stern imperial effigy of the mid-third century provincial coinage tradition. The encircling Greek legend runs around the bust in the field. The style is consistent with Phrygian provincial workshop production of the Decian period. |
