| Obverse description | Draped bust of Matidia facing right, with an elaborate coiffure: the hair is coiled and jeweled atop the head, with the front section adorned by a decorative comb surmounted by an aigrette. The portrait reflects the refined court style of the Trajanic period, rendered with fine detail in the drapery folds and facial features. The encircling legend identifies the subject as Matidia Augusta, daughter of the deified Marciana. |
