| Reverse description | The she-wolf standing left, suckling the twins Romulus and Remus beneath her, a composition evoking the founding myth of Rome. Above the central device, the value mark XL denotes forty nummi, while the officina letter or numeral appears in the lower field or exergue, identifying the workshop of issue. The design is boldly struck though irregular in flan, characteristic of hammered bronze coinage of this period. |
