Reverse description Sol, the sun god, advancing left with right hand raised in salutation and holding a whip or globe in the left hand, depicted in the crude, schematic style of a barbarous imitation. A star appears in the left field. The reverse type imitates the INVICTVS reverse of official Victorinus antoninianes. The legend is largely illegible or degenerate, consistent with the barbarous radiate tradition where copyists reproduced inscriptions without full literacy. The overall die work is rough, with flat and uneven relief across the flan.
