| Reverse description | The personification of Fortuna, goddess of fortune, rendered as a draped female figure standing left in a graceful contrapposto pose. In her extended right hand she holds a ship's rudder, symbolising the steering of fate, while her left arm cradles a cornucopiae, emblematic of abundance and prosperity. The figure is depicted in high relief against a plain field, with the reverse legend disposed on either side of the standing deity. A beaded border frames the entire composition. |
