Reverse description Maximinus Daia depicted standing facing left, shown draped and cuirassed in military attire, his right hand raised in a gesture of address or salutation, while his left hand rests upon a long vertical sceptre. To the right of the figure stand two military ensigns (signa), their standards topped with distinctive finials, emphasising the imperial and martial character of the composition. The reverse legend PRINCIPI IVV-ENTVTIS (To the Prince of Youth) arcs around the design, a common honorific type employed for junior emperors of the Tetrarchic period. The exergue contains the mint mark SMSD, denoting the Serdica mint. The overall style is consistent with Tetrarchic official gold coinage struck at Serdica circa 305–306 AD.
