| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Crispus facing right, rendered in the military style typical of Constantinian-era portraiture. The emperor wears a laurel wreath and a paludamentum (military cloak) fastened at the right shoulder, conveying his status as Caesar and commander. The facial features are rendered with youthful idealization, consistent with Crispus's portraiture at the Lugdunum mint. The encircling legend reads FL IVL CRISPVS NOB CAES, identifying the subject as Flavius Julius Crispus, Noble Caesar. |
