The obverse of the coin depicts a standing figure holding curved wand (lituus) and bunch of grapes; COM to left of figure, MIF to right. In this case, the 'C' is cut off from the edge of the coin. The reverse depicts a laureate bust of Tiberius facing right. The legend should read VERI behind his head and CA in front, but these areas are completely worn away. Cf. ABC 1250; VA 533; BMC 1421-49.
