| Reverse description | Virtus, the divine personification of military courage and virtue, stands in a three-quarter pose facing right, her right foot resting upon a helmet placed in the lower field. She holds a grounded spear in her right hand and a parazonium — the short sword emblematic of military authority — in her left. The figure is depicted in a heroic, semi-draped manner consistent with Flavian allegorical reverse types. The senatorial authorisation mark S C (Senatus Consultum) appears in the field on either side of the figure. The reverse legend VIRTVTI AVGVSTI encircles the design, proclaiming the martial virtue of the Augustus. |
