Description

Front: Kopf des Augustus nach r. Zwei Punzen auf Hals und Gesicht.
Rear: Augustus steht in der Vorderansicht, in der l. Hand Schild mit Aufschrift C V. Mit der r. Hand hält er einen Kometen (sidus Iulium) über den l. stehenden Divus Iulius im Hüftmantel. Dieser mit Victoria auf Globus in der r. Hand, im l. Arm ein Speer.
Graffito: Lettering or similar mark incised into the surface of a coin that had meaning in the contemporary context of the coin.
Chop mark: A mark of undefined form made normally with a chisel-like tool, for example to test the purity of the core of a coin. It can also be the result of damage caused when the object was found.
Punched: Intentionally marked with a punch, both contemporary to the object and later. In contrast to a countermark of a much more simple design. Not to be confused with punches creating a positive image, which were used during the manufacture of a die.
