| Obverse description | Bare head of Augustus facing right, rendered in fine idealised portraiture with naturalistic facial features and a laurel wreath of oak leaves crowning the brow. The effigy is boldly struck in high relief, displaying the emperor's characteristic aquiline nose and strong jaw. The legend AVGVSTVS runs along the lower field in incuse Latin capitals. The design is framed by a neat border of beads encircling the entire obverse field. |
