| Beschrijving keerzijde | Cult statue of Divus Augustus depicted facing left, shown as a togated figure seated upon a curule chair with feet resting on a low footstool. The figure holds a patera in the extended right hand and a long sceptre in the left. Seven stars are distributed across the field, emphasizing the divine status of the deified Augustus. The composition is rendered in a formal, hieratic style characteristic of provincial imperial coinage. |

Claudius reorganized Cyrenaica and Crete as a unified senatorial province, and the civic coinage that emerged under his reign from uncertain Cretan mints reflects the administrative ambiguity of that arrangement — no single city commanded enough authority to dominate the regional silver output. The issuing city for this denomination remains unresolved in the literature, with attributions contested between Gortyna and Knossos across decades of scholarship.
The tridrachm module is itself an anomaly for the province at this period, sitting awkwardly between Attic and Rhodian weight standards.
