| Beschrijving keerzijde | Bare head of the deified Julius Caesar facing left, encircled by a laurel wreath that fills the entire reverse field. The portrait conveys a dignified, idealized character befitting posthumous divine honors. The legend DIVOS IVLIVS appears within or around the wreath, proclaiming Caesar's divine status. A dotted border runs along the inner edge of the coin's flan. The overall composition is compact and centered, with the wreath acting as both a frame and a symbol of consecratio. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Achulla was a minor municipium on the North African coast — modern Botria in Tunisia — and one of only a handful of provincial centers authorized to strike bronze under Augustus. This issue invokes Divus Iulius, the deified Julius Caesar, a politically loaded choice that reinforced Augustus's own divine lineage at a moment when consolidating that narrative in the provinces was still active work, not settled doctrine. The colonial bronze series from Achulla is small and poorly documented, making die-linked survivors genuinely useful for reconstructing the mint's output sequence.
