| Obverse description | Draped bust facing right, adorned with a pearl diadem visible above the brow and a robe ornamented with rows of pearls along the neckline and shoulder. The effigy, rendered in the debased Late Antique style characteristic of early Merovingian coinage, displays schematically engraved facial features and striated hair. The bust is truncated at the chest and occupies the central field, surrounded by a circular Latin legend. The die work reflects the provincial hand of a local moneyer imitating Byzantine imperial prototypes. |
