| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare head of Augustus facing left, rendered in a naturalistic portrait style consistent with early Imperial iconography. The emperor's features are depicted with characteristic short hair brushed forward over the brow. The Latin legend encircles the portrait in the field, reading IMP C D F A P M P P, identifying Augustus by his full titulature as Emperor, son of the Divine, chief priest, and father of the fatherland. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Leftward-facing bust of Hermes wearing the petasus, the winged traveller's hat associated with the deity, with a caduceus visible beside the figure. The design reflects the Hellenistic religious traditions of the Punic city of Leptis Minus, where Hermes was equated with the local deity Shadrapa or Mercury. The Greek legend ΛΕΠΤΙϹ A appears in the field, identifying the issuing city and the denomination numeral. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Lepti Minus, a Phoenician foundation on the Tunisian coast, gained the right to strike bronze civic coinage under Augustus as part of Rome's broader accommodation of established North African urban centers. This issue dates to 10 AD, well into the consolidation of provincial administration, when local elites used coinage to signal loyalty and civic prestige simultaneously. The Greek legend ΛΕΠΤΙϹ is notable — Latin was not yet universal in provincial bronze, and Lepti Minus retained Punic cultural threads long after formal Romanization.
