| Reverse description | A togatus priest advancing left, holding a vexillum (standard) in his right hand, while guiding a yoke of two oxen with a plough — the classic scene of colonial foundation rite (sulcus primigenius). The colonial legend is divided, with part of the inscription appearing above the scene and the remainder in the lower field or exergue. The dotted border is visible around the periphery of the flan. The composition follows the well-established type commemorating the foundation of Colonia Augusta Aroe Patrae. |
