| Obverse description | Bare or lightly draped bust of Augustus facing right, depicted in a bold, somewhat provincial style characteristic of Hispanian municipal coinage of the Augustan period. The portrait displays coarse but expressive modeling, with the emperor's features rendered in high relief against a flat field. A dotted border encircles the design. The legend, largely worn or off-flan on this example, would originally have identified the emperor. |
