| Obverse description | Laureate head of the usurper Domitius Alexander facing right, rendered in a robust late Roman style with closely cropped hair and a wreath of laurel leaves. The portrait displays a strong, slightly angular profile with pronounced facial features characteristic of tetrarchic coinage. The legend encircles the bust, reading IMP C ALEXANDER P F AVG in Latin capitals. The field is plain, with the portrait occupying the majority of the flan. The overall style reflects the provincial mint at Carthage, with somewhat cruder engraving than contemporary metropolitan issues. |
