Beschrijving voorzijde Bare head of Emperor Augustus facing right, portrayed with characteristic Augustan classicising features. The legend is arranged around the periphery of the flan, reading CORINTHI to the left and AVGVSTVS to the right of the portrait. The effigy is rendered in a competent provincial style typical of early Imperial colonial coinage from Corinth.

Aanvullende informatie

Corinth's colonial coinage under Augustus was administered not by Rome but by the local duoviri, Roman magistrates whose names frequently appear on these bronzes — a reminder that Colonia Laus Iulia Corinthiensis operated with considerable municipal autonomy in managing day-to-day civic coinage. The colony had been refounded by Julius Caesar in 44 BC on the site of the city razed by Mummius in 146 BC, and its output of small bronzes in the Augustan period was prolific enough that die studies reveal substantial reuse and recutting across the series.

RPC I 1139 is among the issues datable to the consulship year 4/5 AD by cross-referencing magistrate names against epigraphic records.
