| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare head of Augustus facing right, rendered in a naturalistic Hellenistic portrait style with finely detailed wavy hair swept forward over the brow. The effigy is strongly modelled with a sharp profile, prominent chin, and delicate facial features characteristic of early Augustan portraiture. The encircling legend reads CAESAR AVG TRIBVNIC POTEST, distributed around the periphery of the flan. The field is plain, with no additional devices or symbols. The flan is slightly irregular in outline, consistent with hand-hammered provincial production. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Carisio served as Augustus's legatus in Hispania during the Cantabrian Wars, a brutal campaign that consumed nearly a decade and personally drew Augustus to the peninsula — one of the rare occasions he commanded troops in the field. These provincial issues were struck at Emerita Augusta (modern Mérida), founded explicitly to settle veterans of those campaigns. The mint was new, the city was new, and the coins reflect that moment of consolidation: Roman authority being physically planted in recently pacified territory.
RIC I#19 falls within a series notable for its relatively loose die-cutting compared to contemporaneous Roman production.
