The oak wreath reverse type on this aureus directly references the corona civica — Rome's highest military honor, awarded to a soldier who saved the life of a fellow citizen in battle. Augustus received it from the Senate in 27 BC not for battlefield conduct but as a calculated political gesture, legitimizing his authority without the uncomfortable optics of a triumph. The SPQR dedication framing it was equally deliberate: the Senate was publicly crediting the Roman people's own body for the honor, diffusing any appearance of monarchy.
RIC 78 belongs to the Spanish mint series, most likely Colonia Patricia, active through the late teens BC as Augustus consolidated the western provinces.
