Roman AR Denarius Augustus (27 BC-14 AD) Ch Fine (RIC I 475)
Struck at the dawn of the Roman Empire, this silver denarius dates to the early reign of Augustus, who ruled from 27 BC to 14 AD. Minted around 27 BC in the ancient city of Pergamum, this coin represents a pivotal moment in classical history when the Roman Republic transformed into an empire under its very first emperor. One side of the coin features a clean, bare-headed portrait of Augustus facing to the right, accompanied by the simple inscription CAESAR. The opposite side depicts a powerful bull standing and facing right, paired with the inscription AVGVSTVS. Weighing approximately 3.7 grams, this silver piece carries a Choice Fine grading, offering a tangible connection to the administration and artistry of early imperial Rome.
