| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare head of the usurper Lucius Clodius Macer facing right, rendered in a somewhat austere provincial style characteristic of the brief African revolt coinage of AD 68. The portrait displays strong, mature facial features with a pronounced jaw and brow. The encircling legend reads L CLODIVS MACER, with the senatorial authority mark S C positioned in the lower field beneath the bust. The overall workmanship reflects the hasty, improvised nature of this emergency issue struck outside the established imperial mint system. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A Roman war galley (trireme) depicted in left profile, rendered with careful detail showing a row of oars along the hull and oarsmen at their stations. The vessel's prow and stern ornaments are visible, conveying the naval power commanded by Clodius Macer as governor of Africa. The legend PROPRA AFRICA arcs around the design, referencing his title of Legatus Pro Praetore of Africa. The composition is typical of Roman reverses invoking military and maritime authority, underscoring Macer's control of the vital African grain supply during his revolt against Nero. |
