| Reverse description | Detailed depiction of a Roman camp gateway (porta praetoria) shown in frontal elevation, featuring a central arched opening flanked by two towers with crenellated battlements and multiple horizontal courses of masonry. The gateway is rendered with careful architectural detail, including the portcullis or gate structure visible within the archway. The encircling Latin legend names the issuing colony and runs around the periphery of the flan. This reverse type is characteristic of Emerita Augusta coinage and alludes to the colony's military foundation. |
