| Obverse description | Bare laureate head of Augustus facing right, rendered in the idealized Julio-Claudian portrait style typical of posthumous issues. The effigy displays finely modeled facial features with the laurel wreath clearly visible encircling the head. The surrounding legend runs along the coin's outer border, partially legible on this worn example. The flan is irregular in shape, as characteristic of hammered Roman silver coinage of the period. |

| Reverse description | Central field depicts a prominent crescent, horns pointing upward, beneath an arc of seven six-pointed stars arranged in a semicircle above it. The stars are evenly spaced and the composition fills the field in a balanced, celestial arrangement. A circular legend surrounds the design along the periphery of the flan. The type is characteristic of posthumous Augustan coinage struck during the year of the four emperors, referencing celestial imagery associated with the deified emperor. |
