Reverse description Neptune, the god of the sea, stands facing left in a commanding pose, holding a dolphin in his extended right hand and a long trident in his left. A forepart of a vessel occasionally appears to the left in the field, reinforcing the maritime theme of the reverse type. The composition celebrates Neptune as a divine protector of Postumus's naval power and safe return, consistent with the emperor's dynastic and propagandistic messaging. The reverse legend is arranged horizontally across the field or along the periphery.
