| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed, radiate bust of Tiberius facing left, rendered in high relief with strong, idealized portraiture characteristic of early Imperial coinage. The emperor's features display the firm, austere physiognomy associated with Tiberian portraiture, with a pronounced jaw and short-cropped hair surmounted by a radiate crown. A draped paludamentum is visible at the shoulder. The encircling legend reads TI CAESAR DIVI AVG F AVGVST IMP VIII, distributed around the periphery of the flan. |

The MODERATIONIS legend on this issue refers to Tiberius's publicly performed restraint — his repeated, theatrically reluctant refusals of honors and titles offered by the Senate. The performance was calculated. Tiberius declined the cognomen "pater patriae" at least twice, and the Senate's response was to mint coins commemorating his modesty, which only underscores how thoroughly the vocabulary of Republican virtue had been repurposed as imperial propaganda.
RIC I#40 is among the more frequently encountered Tiberian aes issues, struck across a span of roughly six years from the Rome mint under Senatorial authority — hence the S C.
