| Obverse description | Radiate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Maximianus facing right, rendered in bold relief with the distinctive spiked radiate crown of the antoninianus denomination clearly visible above the emperor's bearded visage. The emperor is depicted wearing a military cuirass with overlapping pteruges visible at the shoulder, conveying his martial authority. The encircling Latin legend runs clockwise around the periphery of the flan, separated from the portrait by a beaded border. The portrait style is characteristic of the Diocletianic workshop tradition, emphasizing a powerful, square-jawed physiognomy befitting Maximianus's identity as the Herculian Augustus. |
