| Obverse description | Laureate head of Augustus facing right, rendered in fine relief with characteristically idealized portraiture of the Augustan period. The emperor's features are depicted with a calm, authoritative expression, his hair arranged in the distinctive Augustan style with a characteristic forked lock above the brow. The encircling legend reads CAESAR AVGVSTVS DIVI F PATER PATRIAE, distributed around the obverse field. The die work is crisp, reflecting the high standard of the Lugdunum mint under Augustus. |

| Reverse description | Bare head of Tiberius facing right, rendered in a restrained, naturalistic style characteristic of early Julio-Claudian portraiture, with close-cropped hair and a strong jaw. The portrait occupies the central field, with the legend TI CAESAR AVG F TR POT XV distributed around the periphery. The designation XV in the lower field records Tiberius's fifteenth year of tribunician power, providing a precise dating criterion for this issue. The overall style and die execution are consistent with the Lugdunum mint's output in the final years of Augustus's reign. |
