Reverse description Standing figure of Virtus, helmeted and attired in full military dress, depicted facing left with the right foot resting upon a helmet set among a shield in the lower field. The personification holds a long spear in the left hand while the right hand grasps a parazonium, the short military sword, resting it upon the right knee. The composition conveys martial authority and imperial virtue, with the legend distributed across the reverse field in multiple lines and around the periphery within a beaded border.
