| Reverse description | Central field occupied by a civic oak wreath (corona civica), rendered as a circular garland tied at the base, a prestigious honorific motif awarded to Augustus by the Roman Senate. The legend MVN TVRIASO is distributed around the wreath, identifying the issuing municipium of Turiaso in Hispania Tarraconensis. The design is spare and emblematic, with the wreath filling the majority of the flan. The execution reflects the local engraving tradition of the Turiaso mint, with broad, slightly rough lettering consistent with other provincial issues of the Augustan period. |
