| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Tiberius facing right, draped at the shoulder, rendered in fine high relief in the restrained classical style characteristic of early Imperial coinage. The laureate wreath is depicted with delicate detail, with ribbons visible at the nape of the neck. The encircling Latin legend reads TI CAESAR DIVI AVG F AVGVSTVS, identifying the emperor as son of the deified Augustus. The portrait conveys imperial authority with idealized yet individualized facial features. The field is plain, with the legend distributed evenly around the periphery. |
