| Reverse description | Jupiter and Hercules depicted as divine protectors of the Caesars, standing face to face. Jupiter stands to the right, nude but for a chlamys, holding a globe in his extended right hand and a long sceptre in his left; Hercules stands to the left, holding a small Victory figure, his club, and the Nemean lion's skin. The mint mark Γ appears in the field and XXI in the exergue, indicating the Antioch mint and the billon standard of 20 parts copper to one part silver. The reverse legend IOVI ET HERCVLI CONS CAES encircles the composition, invoking the twin divine guardians of the Tetrarchic imperial college. |
