| Beschrijving keerzijde | Radiate head of Divus Augustus facing right, the radiate crown rendered with clearly defined rays emanating from the head, signifying his posthumous deification. The portrait is depicted in a confident provincial style, with the legend ΘΕΟϹ ϹΕΒΑϹΤΟϹ ΕΛΕΥΘΕ distributed around the periphery, identifying the subject as the divine Augustus and attributing the issue to the Cretan city of Eleutherna. The reverse flan exhibits the same irregular hammered characteristics as the obverse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Eleutherna, one of the more powerful poleis of central Crete, issued this drachm early in Tiberius's reign — a period when Cretan cities were navigating the awkward transition from Augustan cult to the veneration of his far less popular successor. The legend ΘΕΟϹ ϹΕΒΑϹΤΟϹ, deifying Augustus posthumously, allowed the city to honor the new emperor while anchoring legitimacy in the name that actually carried weight across the province.
RPC I 953A distinguishes this as a separate variety from the core Eleutherna Tiberian issues. Crete and Cyrene formed a single senatorial province, and civic coin production there was sporadic enough that individual die pairings frequently survive in single-digit examples.
