| Reverse description | A cow or heifer facing left occupies the central field, rendered in low relief with visible body contours and stylised surface texture. The legend AVGVSTVS appears in Latin characters along the upper periphery of the coin. The design is consistent with early Augustan monetary types referencing sacrificial or agrarian iconography. The surface shows the characteristic irregular granularity of a tin struck replica. |

| Additional information |
Produced by the World Replica League in 1998 as an educational replica of an Augustan aureus, this piece has no numismatic value as a collectible but occasionally surfaces in dealer stock misidentified — a persistent problem with tin replicas of this type that lack clear "COPY" stamping required under the U.S. Hobby Protection Act, though UK domestic regulations of the period were less prescriptive on that point.
