| Obverse description | Radiate and draped bust of Tetricus I facing right, rendered in a crude, debased style characteristic of barbarous imitations. The radiate crown is visible with exaggerated spikes, and the drapery is suggested by rough, simplified strokes. A blundered, largely illegible Latin legend encircles the bust in the field, derived from the prototype imperial titulature but degenerated beyond coherent reading. The overall die-cutting reflects the work of an unofficial, non-imperial celator copying Gallic Empire prototypes. |
