Reverse description A Roman eagle stands facing, wings spread and displayed, head turned to the right, perched on a low rectangular base or exergual line rendered in high relief. The eagle, a symbol of imperial power and Jupiter, is finely engraved with detailed feathering across the wings and breast. The surrounding legend P M TR POT III IMP V COS X P P runs clockwise around the periphery, separated from the central device by a beaded border. The composition is bold and centred, consistent with the Flavian aureus type of the Rome Mint. The open field around the eagle is uncluttered, lending the design a monumental quality.
