| Reverse description | Bare head of Augustus facing left, depicted in sharp profile within a beaded border. An apex, the distinctive pointed cap of the flamen priesthood, appears behind the head, emphasising Augustus's sacerdotal role. The provincial legend AVGVSTVS HADR is distributed across the field, identifying both the honoree and the issuing city of Hadrumetum. The portrait style reflects the classicising aesthetic promoted under Augustan propagandistic coinage. The overall composition is consistent with the civic bronze issues of Africa Proconsularis. |
