Reverse description The goddess Salus, draped in flowing robes, stands facing right at the center of the field, cradling a serpent in her arms and extending it forward as if offering nourishment, a canonical iconographic motif symbolizing health and divine protection. Her upright, elegant posture occupies the majority of the reverse field, rendered in the flattened relief characteristic of late third-century Roman coinage. The exergual mark, either 'C' or 'T', identifies the issuing mint workshop. The encircling Latin legend, interrupted by the exergual division marks, frames the reverse composition within a beaded border.
