| Obverse description | Laureate and cuirassed bust of Maximianus facing right, with a short beard rendered in finely engraved strokes. The emperor's portrait is executed in high relief with bold, naturalistic modelling characteristic of Tetrarchic imperial coinage. A paludamentum is visible at the shoulder, draped and fastened. The encircling legend reads MAXIMIANVS AVGVSTVS in crisp Latin capitals, distributed around the obverse field within a fine beaded border. |
