|Octavian|, |Roman| |Cilicia| |(Ninica-Claudiopolis?),| |Octavian/Augustus,| |c.| |30| |-| |29| |B.C.|, This type was previously attributed to Macedonia and the portrait as Brutus or Caesar. RPC I, supported by find data, attributes it to Cilicia, probably Cilicia Pedias, and identifies the portrait as Octavian/Augustus, and likely immediately post-Actian. Seyrig proposed the coins were struck for Octavian/Augustus for the founding of Colonia Iulia Felix Augusta Ninica, and the epithet could be apply to both Octavian and the colony. VE and TER abbreviate the names of the two duumviri (municipal officers) of the colony.
