| Beschrijving keerzijde | Six-rayed star with elongated, lenticular rays radiating symmetrically from a central pellet, depicted in low relief and occupying the majority of the coin's field. The design is bold and simply rendered, characteristic of small Alexandrian bronze issues of the early Imperial period. No legend or additional devices are present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Alexandria began striking small bronze issues for Augustus during a period when Egypt functioned essentially as the emperor's personal estate — off-limits to senators, administered by a prefect answerable only to Augustus himself. These tiny bronzes circulated at the lowest denominational tier of a deliberately segregated monetary system: Alexandrian coinage was not interchangeable with Roman imperial currency and could not legally leave Egypt, ensuring provincial revenues stayed captive to imperial accounting.
