| Obverse description | Central field features a cornucopia (cornu copiae) depicted in profile, rendered in relief with characteristic curved form and overflowing abundance motif. The letters S and C (Senatus Consulto) are positioned flanking the cornucopia to left and right respectively, indicating senatorial authority over the issue. A circular legend surrounds the design, reading the names of the tresviri monetales responsible for the emission. The overall style is characteristic of Augustan-era bronze coinage, with bold, simply executed devices suited to the small quadrans denomination. |
