| Reverse description | A bull rendered in powerful, dynamic high relief charges and butts to the right with head lowered, forelegs bent and muscles tensed in vigorous motion, its tail curling upward over its back. The animal stands on a plain ground line, occupying the central field with commanding presence. The exergual legend IMP XII appears below the ground line in neat, evenly spaced capitals. The right portion of the field is enclosed by a partial beaded border, characteristic of Lugdunum mint production of this period. |
