| Obverse description | Radiate bust of the emperor facing right, depicted in a crude barbarous imitative style. The effigy displays radiate crown with pronounced spikes, rendered with bold but irregular die work characteristic of unofficial provincial or barbarous coinage. The surrounding field carries a debased Latin legend, largely garbled and partially illegible, a hallmark of unofficial imitative issues produced beyond imperial mint control. |

| Reverse description | A deer standing facing right occupies the central field, rendered in a simple, schematic style typical of barbarous imitative coinage of the late 3rd to early 4th century. A single letter appears above the animal in the upper field. The flan is irregular and the die work is crude, consistent with non-official provincial imitative production. The reverse design may loosely reference official Tetricus I reverse types, though heavily barbarized. |
