| Beschrijving voorzijde | Helmeted and cuirassed bust of Emperor Carausius facing left, depicted in martial guise with a crested helmet and elaborately decorated armour rendered in high relief. The effigy displays strongly individualised portraiture characteristic of the late third-century Roman tradition, with the emperor's features boldly modelled. The inscription VIRTVS CARAVSI runs in the field around the bust, invoking the martial virtue of the emperor. A beaded border frames the design at the rim. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The personification of Pax (Peace) stands draped in full figure facing left, her weight resting on her right leg in a contrapposto stance. She extends an olive branch forward in her right hand and holds a vertical sceptre or transverse staff in her left. The figure is rendered in the provincial Roman hammered style typical of the Carausian mint. The abbreviated legend PAX AVG appears in the field, invoking the peace of the Augustus, with a beaded border encircling the design. |
