| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare or laureate draped bust of Augustus facing right, rendered in high relief in the Hellenistic tradition of the Syrian mint. The portrait displays finely detailed wavy hair swept forward across the brow, characteristic of Augustan imperial iconography as adapted for the eastern provincial coinage of Antioch. The Greek legend KAIΣAPOΣ ΣEBAΣTOY (of Caesar Augustus) is disposed around the periphery of the field. The overall style reflects the provincial engraving conventions of the Antiochene tetradrachm series. The relief is bold, consistent with the original prototype struck under Augustus for circulation in Syria. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse depicts the Tyche of Antioch enthroned, facing right, holding a palm branch, with the river god Orontes swimming beneath her throne — the canonical reverse type of the Antiochene imperial tetradrachm. The Greek legend ANTIOXIΩN MHTPOΠOΛEI encircles the design, identifying the city of Antioch as metropolis. The denomination mark BM appears in the field, denoting the double denomination. The word COPY is inscribed in Latin characters at the base of the design, identifying this piece as a modern replica. The overall composition faithfully reproduces the prototype associated with the Augustan coinage of Syria. |
