| Obverse description | Bare laureate head of Augustus facing right, rendered with fine portrait detail typical of Augustan court style. The effigy displays the emperor's characteristic short wavy hair beneath the laurel wreath. The legend AVGVSTVS DIVI F is disposed around the periphery, reading partially in the field to the left and right of the portrait. The coin's surface shows the characteristic irregular flan of hammered gold coinage of the early Imperial period. |
