| Reverse description | The Capitoline she-wolf, depicted in left profile, nurses the twin infants Romulus and Remus who are shown crouching beneath her. The she-wolf turns her head downward toward the twins, and the composition evokes the legendary founding of Rome. In the exergue below the group appears a schematic representation of a ficus Ruminalis or architectural element. The abbreviated legend COS III is distributed around the upper field, enclosed within a beaded border. |
