| Obverse description | Right-facing bust of Honorius, pearl-diademed, draped, and cuirassed, rendered in the late Roman imperial tradition. The effigy is encircled by a Latin legend distributed around the periphery of the flan. The portrait reflects the formulaic imperial iconography common to late Roman and early post-Roman coinage struck in the name of Western emperors, here employed by the Vandal administration at Carthage. |
