| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare head of Augustus facing right, rendered in the idealized Hellenistic portrait style characteristic of early imperial provincial coinage. The effigy is depicted without laurel wreath or diadem, emphasizing the civic rather than divine nature of the issue. A partial Greek legend appears in the field, reading ΣΕΒΑΣ, an abbreviated form of ΣΕΒΑΣΤΟΣ, the Greek equivalent of Augustus. The flan shows the typical irregular fabric of a hand-struck provincial bronze. The surface carries an extensive green patina consistent with long burial, partially obscuring fine detail. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Imbrus, the small Aegean island in the northern Thracian sea, retained the right to strike local bronze under Augustus — a privilege that reflected Rome's pragmatic tolerance of civic coinage in the Greek east rather than any formal grant of autonomy. These issues circulated locally alongside Roman currency without challenge, filling the need for small-denomination exchange that Roman mints had little interest in supplying at that scale.
RPC I 1736 is known from a very small number of specimens.
