| Reverse description | A tall cypress tree occupies the central field, flanked by a bull standing right and a lion standing left, the two animals confronted across the tree. Behind the bull appears a military standard in the form of an outstretched hand (manus), while a vexillum standard stands behind the lion. Above the lion's head, a crescent is depicted in the upper field. These emblems are characteristic civic and religious symbols of Aradus, reflecting the city's coinage traditions under the Severan dynasty. The reverse composition is well-centered, with the date legend positioned in the exergue and field areas. |
