Obverse description Bare head of Augustus (attributed), facing right, rendered in a provincial Iberian style with boldly striated hair swept back from the forehead. The effigy exhibits a strong, idealised profile with a prominent chin and a small pellet visible at the ear. The field is plain, and the border consists of a beaded circle. The magistrates' initials C L appear to the left of the portrait in the field.

Reverse description An armed equestrian figure, depicted as a military horseman in full gallop to the right, wearing a helmet and brandishing a long spear or lance held forward in an attacking posture. The horse is shown in a dynamic, leaping stance with all four legs extended, rendered in a characteristically Ibero-Roman provincial style. A horizontal line separates the equestrian motif from the exergue below. The mint name SEGOVIA is inscribed in large Latin capitals within the exergue, enclosed between two horizontal lines.
