Obverse description Pearl-diademed, draped, and cuirassed bust of Magnus Maximus facing right, rendered in the late Roman imperial style typical of the Trier mint. The emperor's effigy displays a beaded diadem across the brow, with paludamentum fastened at the shoulder visible beneath the cuirass. The surrounding Latin legend reads D N MAG MAX-IMVS P F AVG, distributed around the bust within the coin's border. The flan is irregular, as characteristic of late fourth-century nummi, with some surface patination obscuring fine detail. The portrait conveys the commanding authority befitting an usurper emperor who controlled the western provinces.
