| Reverse description | A monumental camp gateway (porta praetoria) depicted in full frontal view, showing a central arched passageway flanked by two square towers, each surmounted by a pair of battlements or pinnacles. The structure features a lower level with two arched posterns beneath the main arch, conveying the fortified colonial character of Emerita Augusta. Three decorative finials are visible atop the central archway. The design is rendered in a crisp, architecturally precise style typical of Augustan-period colonial coinage from Hispania. The legend appears in the lower exergual area and along the periphery of the reverse field. |
