There is some interesting design. Was that meant to be a wreath?

No, it is a clashed die...you are seeing the outline of the reverse-- which is a wreath.

Very cool ancient! I like clashes anyway on any coin and this one is great!

I agree with @vic, but would point out that the clash is visible in front of the portrait as well.

I understand Victor and thank you. Looking at the coin now, it is a shame about the mark on his cheek because that coin otherwise stood up well to the years.
