The god stands on a ground line, conveying the martial power invoked for the emperor's safe return. The encircling legend VOT P SVSC PRO SALVT ET RED I O M SACR is distributed around the periphery of the field in Latin capitals, commemorating the public vows undertaken for the well-being and return of Augustus. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This denarius belongs to a group issued around the time of Augustus's return from the eastern provinces in 19 BC, following his diplomatic settlement with Parthia over the captured legionary standards — an episode the regime exploited heavily for propaganda. The vow inscription references prayers formally undertaken for his safe return, a religious-political gesture the Senate institutionalized as public cult.
RIC I 152 is scarce relative to the broader Augustan denarius series, reflecting the compressed window of its issue.
