| Reverse description | The goddess Victoria advancing left, rendered in high relief in the classical tradition, wearing a flowing draped garment. She holds a wreath in her extended right hand and carries a palm frond over her left shoulder, symbols of triumph and martial victory. The figure is depicted with large spread wings behind her, conveying movement and divine energy. The circular Latin legend VICTORIA OTHONIS is distributed across the field, divided to either side of the central figure. The composition is typical of Othonian aurei, closely following established Julio-Claudian and early imperial iconographic conventions for Victory types. |
