| Obverse description | Right-facing bust of Emperor Arcadius, pearl-diademed, draped and cuirassed, rendered in the late antique imperial style typical of the Theodosian period. The effigy displays a beaded diadem across the forehead and paludamentum over the cuirass, with the portrait set within a beaded border. The obverse legend DN ARCADIVS PF AVG (Dominus Noster Arcadius Pius Felix Augustus) encircles the bust, partially legible due to wear and the coin's irregular flan. The facial features, though heavily worn, retain the characteristically stylized treatment common to small-module late Roman coinage struck at the Cyzicus mint. |
