| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare head of Augustus facing right, rendered in the idealized Hellenistic portrait style characteristic of early Imperial provincial coinage. The emperor's features are finely modeled with a smooth, youthful countenance and short hair rendered in layered strands across the forehead. The portrait is set within a dotted border (beaded rim), occupying the central field with no surrounding legend on this face. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A Capricorn, the personal zodiacal emblem of Augustus, depicted in right profile with a cornucopia rising from its back, a common device celebrating the emperor's fortune and abundance. The creature's body is rendered with scaled fish-tail hindquarters and goat forequarters in the standard provincial die-cutting tradition. The legend AVGVSTVS is inscribed in the lower field in bold Latin capitals, serving as a direct imperial title rather than a surrounding legend. The design is enclosed within a dotted border consistent with the obverse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Parium, a Roman colony on the Propontis coast, held the right of autonomous coinage and used it to project loyalty during Augustus's consolidation of power after Actium. Colonial bronzes from this mint tend to be underrepresented in major collections despite the city's strategic position on the sea route between the Aegean and the Black Sea.
The Conventus of Adramyteum grouped administratively distinct communities for judicial and financial purposes — Parium's inclusion placed it under oversight that extended well into the Troad hinterland.
