Commentary
Nous n’avons pas relevé d’identité de coin pertinente. Au revers, nous avons dans le champ à gauche, un petit chiffre à l’encre de chine (285) qui marque certainement un numéro d’inventaire de trésor. Avec un buste à gauche, ce type semble plus rare que ne le laissent supposer les ouvrages généraux.
We have not found any relevant die identity. On the reverse, we have in the left field, a small number in Indian ink (285) which certainly marks a treasure inventory number. With a bust on the left, this type seems rarer than general works suggest

Historical background
OCTAVIAN
(63 BC - 27 BC)
Octavian, born September 23, 63 BC in Thurium, was adopted by his great-uncle, Julius Caesar, in 45 BC. After Caesar's death, he formed the second triumvirate with Marc Antony and Lepidus and was one of the architects of the proscriptions which cost Cicero his life in 43 BC. In 42 BC, Brutus and Cassius were defeated at Philippi, where they committed suicide. After the naval battle of Actium (31 BC) and the conquest of Egypt the following year, Octavian celebrated a triple triumph in Rome (August 13-15, 29 BC). That year the temple of Julius Caesar was dedicated..
