Reverse description The personification of Dacia stands facing left in the central field, wearing the distinctive Dacian cap (pileus) and long robes, holding two legionary vexilla — the left inscribed V (Legio V Macedonica) and the right inscribed XIII (Legio XIII Gemina) — along with a curved sword (falx or sica). To the left of the central figure, an eagle stands facing left with head turned right, holding a laurel wreath in its beak; to the right, a lion stands facing left. The reverse legend PROVINCIA DACIA with the dating formula AN V (year 5) appears in the field, marking this issue to the fifth year of the Dacian provincial era. The composition reflects the strong symbolic association between the province, its two garrisoning legions, and traditional Dacian iconography.
