| Obverse description | Bare head of Augustus facing right, rendered in fine portraiture characteristic of Augustan coinage, with naturalistic hair falling in short locks across the forehead. The legend CAESAR AVGVSTVS runs around the periphery of the flan. The portrait displays the idealized yet individualistic style associated with the Colonia Patricia mint, with clean facial features and a well-modeled jawline. The field is smooth and the coin exhibits the slightly irregular flan typical of hammered provincial issues of the period. |
