| Obverse description | Facing right, the pearl-diademed, draped, and cuirassed bust of the young Augustus Flavius Victor, son of Magnus Maximus, rendered in the late Roman imperial style characteristic of the Lugdunum mint. The effigy displays the emperor in military attire, with the pearl diadem signifying imperial dignity. The surrounding Latin legend reads D N FL VICTOR P F AVG, identifying the ruler as Our Lord Flavius Victor, Pious and Fortunate Augustus. The flan is small and irregular, with heavy encrustation and patination obscuring much of the fine die detail on this example. |
