Reverse description A sacrificial patera and simpulum (ladle) arranged centrally above a low altar or base, flanked by two serpents rearing upward on either side, a composition symbolising the piety and sacred ritual duties of the Augustan household. The iconography of the PIETAS AVGVSTOR type evokes dynastic religious devotion. The encircling Latin legend PIETAS AVGVSTOR surrounds the design. The reverse field shows the typical flat, slightly off-centre strike common to late Gallic Empire billon antoninianii struck at Cologne.
