Obverse description The deified Augustus is depicted in right-facing profile, radiate, seated in a ceremonial quadriga drawn by four elephants with riders. The emperor holds a laurel branch in his right hand and a long sceptre in his left, rendered in a commemorative and honorific style befitting posthumous imperial coinage. The design occupies a broad, open field typical of early Imperial aes coinage. The surrounding legend identifies the dedicatory authority.
