Obverse description Bare, bearded portrait bust of Lucius Junius Brutus — legendary founder of the Roman Republic — facing right, rendered in the austere veristic style characteristic of late Republican coinage. The legend BRVTVS appears in the field behind the head, serving as both a dynastic identifier and an ideological allusion to the moneyer Marcus Junius Brutus. The portrait is executed with strong, individualized features consistent with the Republican tradition of ancestral portraiture. A border of dots frames the design.
