| Reverse description | A tetrastyle temple depicted in frontal elevation, its four columns rising from a visible stylobate and supporting a triangular pediment ornamented at the centre with a rosette or eight-pointed star motif. The architectural rendering follows Hellenistic conventions and is believed to represent the temple of Augustus at Caesarea, reflecting Juba II's deference to Roman imperial cult. The Latin legend AVGVSTI is distributed in the field flanking the temple facade, split as AVG to the left and STI to the right. A dotted border frames the composition, and faint vegetal elements are visible below the stylobate in the exergue. |
