| Obverse description | Bare laureate head of Augustus facing right, rendered in fine relief with carefully detailed wreath of bay leaves. The portrait displays the idealized Augustan style characteristic of the early Imperial period, with sharp facial features and a strong profile. The encircling legend CAESARI AVGVSTO runs around the periphery of the flan. The coin's edge is irregular, typical of hand-struck Roman silver of this period. |
