| Obverse description | Bare-headed or diademed draped and cuirassed bust of Julian II as Caesar facing right, occupying the full field. The portrait displays the characteristic youthful features associated with Julian's early coinage as Noble Caesar under Constantius II. The encircling Latin legend reads D N IVLIANVS NOB C, identifying the emperor by name and title. The flan is irregular and the surfaces heavily worn, obscuring finer details of the drapery and cuirass rendering. A dotted or beaded border frames the composition. |

| Reverse description | Central type depicting a Roman soldier, helmeted and in military dress, standing left and spearing a fallen barbarian horseman whose mount rears beneath him — the canonical FEL TEMP REPARATIO 'falling horseman' type. The soldier holds a shield on his left arm and thrusts a spear downward at the enemy. The surrounding Latin legend reads FEL TEMP REPARATIO with the officina letter M to the right. The exergue bears the Siscia mint mark (xSISL, with x denoting the officina), though heavily worn on this specimen. A beaded border surrounds the design. |
