| Reverse description | Gaius and Lucius Caesar, heirs of Augustus, depicted standing facing, each togate, with a round shield resting at their side and a spear held upright. Between them, at the upper field, a simpulum appears to the left and a lituus to the right, symbolic of their priestly and military roles. The two figures are rendered in a symmetrical, frontal composition conveying dynastic authority and succession. The encircling legend identifies them as designated consuls and princes of the youth. |
