| Obverse description | Bare or radiate head of Augustus facing right, portrayed with characteristic Roman Imperial effigy in a provincial style. The legend AVGVSTVS DIVI F PATER PATRIAE surrounds the bust in Latin capitals, reading clockwise around the periphery of the flan. The portrait displays the emperor's distinctive features rendered in the local Hispanic workshop tradition, with drapery visible at the base of the bust. The flan is irregular, typical of hammered provincial bronze coinage from the Hispanian municipia. |
