Beschrijving voorzijde Jugate busts of Agrippa (left) and Augustus (right) set back-to-back in facing opposition, both portrayed in high relief. Agrippa is depicted wearing his distinctive combined rostral crown and laurel wreath, symbolizing his dual honours as naval commander and statesman, while Augustus bears his customary laureate head. The effigies are rendered in the authoritative Julio-Claudian portrait style, with the legend disposed around the field.

Beschrijving keerzijde A crocodile in profile, chained to an erect palm-shoot bearing long vertical fronds with the tip directed to the left, symbolizing the Roman conquest of Egypt. Above, to the left, a laurel wreath with long flowing ties is depicted in the field. The crocodile motif, characteristic of the Nemausus coinage, alludes to the Augustan victory over Cleopatra and Antony, while the palm-shoot reinforces themes of triumph and imperial dominion. The colonial legend is disposed around the central device.
