| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare head of Augustus facing right, rendered in the idealized portrait style characteristic of early Augustan provincial coinage. The effigy displays the emperor's distinctive features with short, lightly striated hair falling over the forehead. The abbreviated Latin legend AVG appears in the field to the left of the portrait, identifying the ruler as Augustus. The flan is irregular and the surfaces show substantial patination consistent with provincial bronze coinage of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Alexandria Troas, a Roman colony refounded by Augustus himself — likely under the name Colonia Augusta Troas — was one of the few cities in the eastern Aegean granted full colonial status, exempting its citizens from provincial taxation. Augustus considered the site seriously as a potential capital before settling on Byzantium, and later Rome, as priorities shifted. That political intimacy explains the early and enthusiastic local coinage in his name.
