Obverse description Bare head of Augustus facing right, rendered in fine naturalistic style with carefully detailed hair swept forward in short curling locks. The portrait, presented without laurel wreath or diadem, conveys the restrained, classicizing aesthetic favored in Augustan coinage. The legend AVGVSTVS is distributed along the upper border, while DIVI F appears in the lower right field, affirming his divine lineage as son of the deified Julius Caesar. A border of beads encircles the design.
