| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare laureate head of Tiberius facing right, rendered in the naturalistic Julio-Claudian style with fine detailing of the laurel wreath and hair. The portrait occupies the majority of the flan, with the legend disposed around the periphery. A dotted border frames the design. The effigy conveys imperial authority consistent with provincial coinage produced under Roman oversight in Crete. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Radiate head of Divus Augustus facing left, the radiate crown symbolising his deified status. Behind the head, a large radiate star or cross-form motif is visible in the field, a distinctive iconographic element of this Cretan provincial issue. The surrounding Greek legend identifies both the deified emperor and the issuing community. A dotted border runs along the coin's edge, consistent with the hammered fabric of the flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Hierapytna, on the southeastern coast of Crete, was one of the last Cretan cities to submit to Rome during the conquest of 69–67 BC, and it retained enough local prestige under the Principate to strike civic coinage in the emperor's name. The posthumous divine titulature — ΘΕΟϹ ϹΕΒΑϹΤΟϹ, deified Augustus — places this issue after Augustus's death in AD 14, struck under Tiberius as part of the formal imperial cult establishment on the island. Svoronos catalogued very few die pairings for this type.
