Reverse description The goddess Diana depicted in full figure, draped in a flowing garment, striding vigorously to the right in a dynamic hunting pose. Her left hand extends forward grasping a bow, while her right hand reaches back over her shoulder to draw an arrow from the quiver carried on her back. The figure is rendered with classical elegance, consistent with Augustan neo-Attic artistic ideals. The abbreviated legend IMP XV SICIL appears in the field, referencing Augustus's fifteenth imperatorial acclamation and the Sicilian context. A beaded border surrounds the entire design.
