| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare head of Augustus facing right, portrayed with fine portraiture typical of early Imperial provincial coinage. The effigy displays the emperor's characteristic features with short hair rendered in shallow relief. A circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait within the coin's border, reading MV CAL AVGVSTVS, identifying the mint city of Calagurris and the emperor. The flan is slightly irregular, as is common for hammered provincial bronzes of this period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Calagurris — modern Calahorra in La Rioja — was among the Spanish municipia that issued bronze coinage under Augustus, a privilege tied to the city's status as a Roman colony established after its brutal siege and near-destruction during the Sertorian War of the 70s BC. The duoviri named on this issue, L. Priscus and C. Brocchus, were local magistrates whose names survive almost exclusively through the coinage itself. Provincial bronze of this type circulated as small change within the colony and its immediate region, rarely traveling far.
