Obverse description Bare laureate head of Augustus facing right, rendered with finely detailed hair beneath a prominent laurel wreath. The portrait displays the idealized classicizing style characteristic of Augustan imperial coinage. A beaded border frames the periphery of the flan. The Latin legend CAESARI AVGVSTO runs around the field in dative form, proclaiming the honorific title of the emperor.
