Obverse description Bare head of Emperor Tiberius facing left, with short, neatly combed hair rendered in fine relief, the portrait exhibiting the restrained, classicizing style typical of Julio-Claudian provincial coinage. The effigy is boldly struck and occupies the majority of the coin's field, conveying imperial authority. A circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait, contained within a beaded border. The titulature records Tiberius's imperial acclamation and consular tenure, affirming the coin's date of issue to AD 23.
