| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare head of Augustus facing right, rendered in fine portrait style characteristic of Augustan coinage. The emperor's effigy displays idealized classical features with short hair rendered in forward-combed locks. The encircling legend CAESARI AVGVSTO runs around the periphery, divided to either side of the bust. The coin's irregular flan, typical of hammered Augustan aurei from the Spanish mint, is visible at the margins. |

The SPQR aurei of Augustus date to a politically charged moment: 19–18 BC, when the Senate granted Augustus a fresh round of powers following his return from settling affairs in the East, including the recovery of the standards lost by Crassus at Carrhae in 53 BC. The emissions bearing this legend were part of a deliberate program to frame his authority as constitutionally derived — the Senate and People, not a dynasty, as the source of his power.
RIC I 114 is attributed to an uncertain mint, possibly in Spain, active during the Augustan reorganization of western provincial coinage in the late 19s BC.
