Obverse description Bare head of Augustus facing right, rendered in the idealised Hellenistic portrait style typical of early Augustan provincial coinage. The portrait is compact and finely modelled for the small module, with closely cropped hair and a well-defined jaw. No legend is present on the obverse field.

Reverse description Athena Ilias depicted standing facing, turned slightly to the right, holding a long spear in her left hand and a Nike figure in her outstretched right hand. The goddess is rendered in a stiff, archaising style characteristic of civic bronzes from the Troad region. A monogram, likely a civic or magistrate's mark, appears to the right of the figure. The ethnic legend ΙΛΙ is placed in the field, identifying the issuing city of Ilium.
