| Obverse description | Central field displays an oak wreath (corona civica), flanked on either side by a laurel branch, the whole composition rendered in low relief characteristic of Augustan hammered coinage. The corona civica, Rome's highest honour awarded for saving the lives of citizens, is depicted tied with a ribbon. The surrounding inscription reads OB CIVIS SERVATOS. The flan is broad and irregular, with the design occupying the central field without a portrait effigy, as was typical for the aes coinage issued under the tresviri monetales of this period. |
