| Reverse description | Two standing figures arranged upon a raised base or podium. Augustus is depicted standing to the left in military attire, holding a patera extended over a flaming altar and resting his other hand upon a sword hilt. A female figure, standing to the left, crowns Augustus from behind, her gesture emblematic of Victoria or a personification of the colony conferring divine honours. The colonial legend is distributed within the reverse field, referencing the Colonia Iulia Augusta Philippensis. The composition celebrates the Augustan foundation of the colony of Philippi and its enduring imperial cult. |
