Reverse description Two cornucopias crossed at their bases in saltire, filled with fruits and foliage, form the central device of the reverse field. Emerging from the horns are the three small draped busts of Claudius's children — Britannicus flanked by his two sisters Octavia and Antonia — arranged in a row, facing front. The legend LIBERIS AVG appears in the upper field, with COL A A P divided in the lower field around the crossed stems, referencing the Colonia Augusta Aroe Patensis. The composition is a dynastic statement celebrating the imperial succession and the prosperity of the colony.
