Obverse description Bare head of Augustus facing left, rendered in the classicizing portrait style typical of early Augustan provincial coinage. A lituus (augural staff) is depicted in the field before the effigy, underscoring Augustus's role as augur. The Latin legend encircles the portrait within a dotted border, and a serpent or scroll motif is visible in the lower field. The flan is broad and slightly irregular, characteristic of locally struck provincial bronze issues.
