Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate, cuirassed bust of Emperor Diocletian facing right, depicted with short beard and wearing a muscled cuirass with pteryges visible at the shoulder. The portrait is rendered in the austere, powerful Tetrarchic style characteristic of late Roman imperial coinage. The obverse legend runs clockwise around the periphery of the flan within a beaded border. The effigy conveys imperial authority through its rigid, frontal treatment of the cuirass and the bold, angular facial features typical of the Diocletianic period.

Beschrijving keerzijde The Genius of the Roman People (Genius Populi Romani) stands facing left, depicted as a youthful, nude male figure wearing a modius (grain measure) on his head and a chlamys draped over his left shoulder. In his right hand he holds a patera extended over an altar, and in his left hand he bears a cornucopiae, symbolising abundance and divine favour. The reverse legend is divided on either side of the figure, and no mintmark appears in the exergue, a characteristic of early Londinium nummus production under RIC VI 23a.
