Obverse description Bare or radiate head of the deified Augustus facing left, with a star positioned above the portrait. The effigy is rendered in the standard posthumous style employed at Emerita, with a circular Latin legend surrounding the bust reading DIVVS · AVG · PATER C · A · E ·. The portraiture is executed in the provincial Roman tradition characteristic of Hispanian colonial issues under Tiberius.
