Obverse description Diademed bust of an imperial effigy facing right, rendered in the debased late antique style characteristic of Merovingian coinage. The bust is depicted with a diadem and stylized drapery, reflecting the continued imitation of late Roman imperial portraiture. A surrounding Latin legend encircles the field, partially legible due to the irregular flan and crude die-cutting typical of this period.
