| Reverse description | The goddess Victoria is depicted standing to the right upon the prow of a warship (rostrum), a type evoking Rome's naval dominance and the Flavian dynasty's triumphant propagandistic imagery. She extends her right arm forward, holding a wreath in offering, while her left hand bears a long palm branch angled away from her body. Her wings are spread prominently behind her, rendered with detailed feathering visible despite the coin's wear. The senatorial authorization mark S C (Senatus Consultum) appears in the central field to either side of the figure, and the encircling legend VICTORIA AVGVST runs around the periphery. |
