| Obverse description | Bare head of Octavian (the future Augustus) facing right, rendered in a classicising Hellenistic portrait style with fine, close-cropped hair. The Greek legend ΘΕΟC appears vertically in the left field, identifying the subject with divine or deified status. The portrait is boldly modelled in high relief against a flat, unadorned field, consistent with the civic coinage tradition of the Macedonian mint at Thessalonica during the late Republican–early Imperial transitional period. |
