| Obverse description | Helmeted, pearl-diademed, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Theodosius I facing right, with spear held upright over the right shoulder and a decorated shield displayed in front. The helmet is adorned with a crest and the cuirass features detailed military ornamentation consistent with late Roman imperial portraiture. The legend encircles the bust, reading D N THEODO-SIVS P F AVG. The overall style reflects the robust, frontal military portraiture characteristic of the Theodosian period. |
