| Obverse description | Bare or laureate head of Augustus facing right, rendered in low relief within a plain border. The portrait, characteristic of the Augustan provincial coinage of Carthage, is heavily worn and encrusted with brown-green patina, obscuring fine details of the effigy. The Latin authorization legend D D P P (decreto decurionum pecunia publica) appears in the field, attesting to the civic authority sanctioning the issue. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, consistent with locally produced colonial bronze coinage of the early Imperial period. |
