| Reverse description | Draped bust of Julia (daughter of Augustus), assimilated to Aphrodite, facing right, rendered in a similarly idealized Hellenistic manner consistent with the obverse portrait. The Greek legend IOYΛIAN AΦΡOΔITHN is inscribed in the field around the bust, identifying Julia with the goddess of love and beauty. The pairing of the two imperial women as Hera and Aphrodite reflects the deliberate divine assimilation characteristic of Augustan-era Greek civic coinage in the province of Asia. |
