| Obverse description | Bare head of Caligula (Gaius Caesar) facing right, rendered with fine engraving typical of early Julio-Claudian portraiture, showing short curled hair and a youthful physiognomy. The portrait is positioned centrally within the field, with the legend surrounding it along the coin's border within a beaded inner circle. The likeness captures the imperial dignity of the emperor in a naturalistic yet idealized style consistent with Augustan artistic tradition. |
