Beschrijving voorzijde Crude barbarous imitation of a Roman imperial bust facing right, depicted in a simplified, stylized manner characteristic of Germanic tribal coinage. The effigy shows a draped bust with a rudimentary diadem or radiate crown, rendered with broad, schematic strokes by an engraver unfamiliar with classical Roman die-cutting techniques. Surrounding the bust is a degenerate pseudo-legend composed of vertical strokes imitating Latin letters, arranged in an irregular circular band. The overall execution reflects a deliberate yet artistically naive attempt to replicate a late Roman aureus prototype. The field is plain and slightly uneven, consistent with the irregular flan typical of barbarous imitative struck coinage.

Beschrijving keerzijde Crude barbarous imitation of a seated or enthroned figure, likely derived from a late Roman imperial reverse type depicting the emperor or a deity seated on a throne, rendered in a highly schematic and abstracted style. The figure is shown frontally or in three-quarter view, with simplified limbs and body, positioned centrally within the field. Architectural or decorative elements suggestive of a throne or chair are visible beneath the figure. A degenerate pseudo-legend consisting of repeated vertical strokes imitating Latin letters encircles the design. The overall composition reflects the progressive debasement of the Roman prototype through successive copying by Germanic tribal die-cutters.
