| Obverse description | Draped and cuirassed bust of Licinius II as Caesar facing right, the head laureate with a wreath of bay leaves. The portrait conveys the youthful features of the junior emperor, rendered in the late Constantinian style with bold, slightly stylised modelling. The encircling Latin legend reads LICINIVS IVN NOB C, identifying Licinius Junior as Noble Caesar, interrupted by a dotted border. |
