| Obverse description | Radiate, draped bust of Emperor Postumus facing right, rendered in two known bust variants: bust type (A) draped only, and bust type (C) draped and cuirassed. The emperor's radiate crown, a hallmark of the antoninianus denomination, frames the portrait with characteristic military authority. The legend encircles the bust within the coin's field, following standard imperial titulature convention of the mid-third century Gallic coinage. |
