Note The portrait looks like a mature Augustus, of the last two decades of his reign; hence the tentative attribution. 3382ff Pfälzer Privatsammlungen SNG 54-9 include further specimens. Pf. 54-55 (and 57?) are as RPC 3382; Pf. 56 as RPC 3385; Pf. 57 may be as RPC 3384 (or 3382); Pf. 58 seems to be different; Pf. 59 is as RPC 3389.
