Reverse description A standing female figure, identifiable as Aequitas-Moneta, occupies the center of the reverse field, rendered in flowing draped robes with her weight shifted onto her right leg. She extends her right hand forward holding a pair of scales (libra), emblematic of equity and fair measure, while her left hand grasps a cornucopiae, symbolizing abundance. The figure stands on a small ground line, and the composition conveys the imperial ideology of just and prosperous governance. The surrounding legend P M TR P COS III is distributed to left and right of the figure, with a beaded border encircling the design.
