| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare head of Augustus facing right, rendered in fine Augustan classicising style with naturalistic curling hair swept forward over the brow. The portrait is presented as a clean-shaven, idealised effigy typical of official Augustan coinage. The legend is distributed in the field around the bust, reading AVGVSTVS to the left and DIVI F to the right. A finely beaded border frames the design. The portrait displays the restrained realism and Greek-influenced aesthetic characteristic of the Lugdunum mint issues of this period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Augustus received his tenth imperatorial acclamation following victories in the Alpine campaigns of 15 BC, led by his stepsons Tiberius and Drusus against the Raeti and Vindelici. The IMP X designation on this issue precisely dates it to the narrow window between that acclamation and the eleventh, making it one of the more chronologically useful markers in the Augustan series for historians reconstructing the imperial titulature sequence.
RIC 165A is attributed to the Lugdunum mint, which Augustus had elevated as a primary silver and gold striking facility from around 15 BC onward, partly to supply the Rhine frontier armies with pay.
