| Obverse description | Bare male head facing right, rendered in a somewhat archaic Ibero-Roman style with tightly curled hair arranged in a pronounced mass over the crown and nape. Three dolphins are disposed around the effigy — one above, one before, and one below — serving as both decorative and civic emblematic devices typical of Sedetani bronze coinage. The portrait is boldly engraved in high relief with well-defined facial features, occupying most of the flan. The field is otherwise plain, with no legend or inscription present on the obverse. |
