| Reverse description | Standing figure of Moneta, the personification of the mint and monetary standard, depicted facing left in classical drapery. In her extended right hand she holds a pair of scales, symbolizing the just weight of coinage, while her left hand supports a cornucopiae, representing abundance and prosperity. The figure is rendered in a confident, stylized manner consistent with Cologne mint production under Postumus. The reverse legend MONETA AVG arcs across the field, identifying the type. |
