Obverse description Bare-headed and draped bust of Magnentius facing right, rendered in a somewhat crude barbarous style characteristic of unofficial imitations. The hair is depicted with coarse striated lines swept back from the forehead, and the drapery is visible at the base of the bust. A control letter 'A' appears in the left field behind the head. The partially legible obverse legend, disposed around the periphery, reads DN MAGNENTIVS PF AVG.

Obverse lettering [DN MAGNENTIVS PF AVG] `A` behind head
