| Obverse description | Bare or laureate head of Augustus facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic-Roman provincial style typical of Alexandrian bronze coinage. The portrait displays the characteristic idealized features of the emperor, with the legend ΠΑΤΗΡ ΠΑΤΡΙΔΟΣ (Father of the Fatherland) disposed around the effigy. The surfaces show considerable wear and patination consistent with circulation use. |
