| Obverse description | Youthful head of Hercules facing right, wearing the Nemean lion's scalp as a headdress, the paws knotted at the throat, with curling locks visible beneath. The portrait is rendered in a vigorous Hellenistic style consistent with late Republican and early Augustan coinage. The legend arcs around the periphery within a beaded border, partially visible to the left and right of the bust. No secondary attributes appear in the field. The overall die work displays fine engraving characteristic of the skilled moneyers of the Augustan mint. |
