| Obverse description | A modius (grain measure) or altar depicted in the central field, rendered in profile. The design is characteristic of Augustan-era bronze coinage, with the object occupying the central device. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central type, naming the moneyers Sisenna and Apronius in their capacity as Triumviri Monetales. The coin is struck on an irregular flan showing typical characteristics of hammered Roman Republican-style production carried into the early Imperial period. |
