Reverse description Bare head of Augustus facing right, similarly styled to the obverse portrait, with the characteristic Augustan physiognomy rendered in a competent if somewhat provincial manner. The surrounding Greek legend ΚΑΙΣΑΡΟΣ ΣΕΒΑΣΤΟΥ, reading 'of Caesar Augustus', encircles the bust and affirms the coin's dual royal and imperial authority. A dotted border frames the design on the inner edge of the flan. The portrait style closely mirrors the obverse, suggesting both sides were intended as paired honorific representations within the context of the Thracian client kingdom's coinage.
