| Obverse description | Bare head of Augustus facing right, rendered in the classicizing portrait style characteristic of Nicopolis civic coinage struck under Hadrian. The effigy displays the idealized features associated with the deified founder, presented without laurel wreath or diadem, in accordance with the honorific ΚΤΙϹΤΗϹ (Founder) designation. The circular Greek legend ΚΤΙϹΤΗϹ ΑΥΓΟΥϹΤΟϹ surrounds the portrait within the coin's field. |
