Reverse description Felicitas, personification of happiness and prosperity, stands in full figure facing left upon a low rectangular base or plinth, rendered in the classical contrapposto stance. She holds a long rudder in her left hand, its blade resting on the ground, and a large cornucopiae (horn of plenty) in her right arm. The figure is draped in a long chiton and exhibits high-quality die engraving with well-articulated drapery folds. The reverse legend PONTIF TR POT is arranged in two horizontal lines flanking the figure, within a beaded border. The composition affirms Titus's priestly and tribunician authority through allegorical imagery.
