Apameia (BC 27-AD 14) AE 20 - Augustus

Augustus (?) 27 BC-14 AD. AE18 (5.61g). Laureate head right / AÎ AMEÎ©N between two flutes within a laurel wreath. VF, brown patina.

The attribution to Augustus is very tenuous. The head is clearly a portrait, but does not resemble any of the other Augustus portraits from the area.
