| Reverse description | Livia, veiled and draped, is depicted seated to the right on a throne or chair, holding a patera in her extended right hand and a long sceptre in her left. The figure is rendered in a formal, hieratic style consistent with provincial Roman workshop production. The seated pose and attributes allude to Livia's quasi-divine status and her identification with imperial virtues such as Pietas. The municipal legend is distributed around the reverse field, referencing the issuing authority of Utica by decree of the local decurions. |
