| Obverse description | Bare head of Augustus facing right, rendered in portrait style with characteristic Augustan classicizing features. The effigy is set within a circular field bordered by a continuous Latin legend. The portrait displays a slightly idealized likeness consistent with official Augustan coinage of the late 1st century BC. The truncation of the neck is plain, without drapery. |

| Reverse description | Large monogram composed of the letters S and C (Senatus Consultum) prominently displayed in the central field, with the S curving beneath a bold C, together forming the authorizing mark of the Roman Senate for bronze coinage. A large M appears above the SC monogram, likely representing the moneyer's initial. The entire design is encircled by the moneyer's legend in Latin capitals running around the periphery of the flan. |
