| Reverse description | Two standing deities depicted in opposing orientation within the field. To the left, Salus (identified with the Greek Hygieia) stands facing right, extending a patera toward a serpent coiling upward to feed; to the right, Aesculapius (Asclepius) stands facing left, holding his characteristic serpent-entwined staff. The colonial mint legend appears in the field between and around the figures. The composition reflects the syncretism of Roman and Greek healing cult iconography typical of Corinthian provincial coinage. |
