Beschrijving voorzijde Right-facing draped and cuirassed bust of Emperor Gratian, adorned with a pearl diadem, rendered in the late Roman imperial style characteristic of the Theodosian period. The effigy is depicted with careful attention to the layered drapery and cuirass detail, though the die work reflects the reduced artistic standards of the late fourth century AE coinage. The circumferential obverse legend runs clockwise around the bust within the coin's irregular flan. Surfaces exhibit an olive-green patina consistent with prolonged burial, with areas of exposed copper-red metal visible on the high relief of the portrait.

Opschrift voorzijde D N GRATIANVS P F AVG
(Translation: Dominus noster Gratianus pius felix augustus: Our lord Gratian, pious and blessed august.)
Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse displays a votive inscription arranged in four horizontal lines of Latin text enclosed within a laurel wreath, a type common to late Roman AE issues commemorating imperial anniversary vows. The wreath, tied at its base, frames the votive legend celebrating Gratian's decennial and vicennial vow renewals. The mintmark appears in the exergue below the wreath, identifying the Nicomedia mint and its second officina. The overall field is plain, with no additional devices or symbols flanking the central inscription.
