| Obverse description | Bare head of Augustus facing right, rendered in fine classical style with naturalistically detailed hair swept forward in layered locks across the forehead. The portrait is modelled with elegant precision, capturing the idealized yet individualized features of the emperor. The encircling legend CAESAR AVGVSTVS is divided between left and right fields, set within a beaded border. The high-relief effigy displays the refined artistry characteristic of early Augustan imperial coinage. |
