| Obverse description | Bare laureate head of Emperor Tiberius in right profile, rendered in the provincial Hispanic style characteristic of the Calagurris mint. The imperial effigy occupies the central field, with the laurel wreath clearly articulated around the head. A circular Latin legend surrounds the bust, naming Tiberius with his full titulature as son of the deified Augustus and Imperator. The flan is irregular in shape, as typical of provincial Hispanic issues of the Julio-Claudian period, and the surfaces show characteristic green patination. |

| Reverse description | A bull (Bos taurus) standing right occupies the central field, rendered in the local Iberian-Roman artistic tradition. At centre, a rectangular incuse countermark bearing the letters ST is applied over the field, likely representing a military or administrative validation stamp. The Latin legend of the two duoviri magistrates is distributed around the periphery of the flan in two lines, naming the magistrates Fulvius Sparsus and Saturninus as the presiding IIviri. The overall composition is consistent with the municipal coinage of Calagurris under Tiberius, and the flan edges are notably irregular. |
