| Obverse description | Bare head of Augustus facing right, rendered in the idealized portrait style typical of early Imperial provincial coinage. The effigy displays the emperor's characteristic youthful features with close-cropped hair. The circular legend AVGVSTVS ACRAG runs around the periphery of the flan, identifying both the emperor and the issuing city of Acragas (Agrigentum). The coin exhibits a deep green patina consistent with its bronze composition and considerable age. |
