Obverse description Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Dalmatius Caesar facing right, portrayed with youthful features characteristic of his junior imperial rank. The laureate wreath is rendered in fine detail, and the paludamentum is visible at the shoulder. The encircling legend reads FL DELMATIVS NOB CAES in Latin characters, identifying the subject as Flavius Dalmatius, Noble Caesar. The portrait reflects the standardized late Constantinian workshop style prevalent at the Heraclea mint.
