| Obverse description | Laureate head of Augustus facing right, rendered in the idealized portrait style characteristic of early Imperial Roman provincial coinage. The legend PERM CAES AVG is distributed around the periphery of the flan, indicating the coin was struck by permission of Caesar Augustus. The portrait displays fine detail in the laurel wreath, with the emperor's features exhibiting a youthful, classical treatment typical of Augustan-era imagery. |
