| Obverse description | Bare, radiate head of the deified Augustus facing left, rendered in the idealized portrait style characteristic of Tiberian-era posthumous coinage. The radiate crown, symbolizing Augustus's divine status, is rendered with pronounced individual rays emanating from the head. The portrait displays strong facial modeling with a prominent nose and chin, enclosed within a dotted border. The encircling Latin legend DIVVS AVGVSTVS PATER runs around the periphery of the field, proclaiming the emperor's divine and paternal status. |
