| Reverse description | Fortuna Redux seated left on a throne, rendered in flowing drapery, holding a rudder set on a globe in her right hand and a cornucopia in her left — the standard iconographic attributes of the goddess as bringer of safe return and prosperity. The figure is depicted with careful attention to drapery folds, characteristic of the skilled engravers of the Rome Mint under Trajan. The abbreviated legend encircles the field, with FORT RED appearing in the exergue, directly identifying the reverse type. The composition commemorates Trajan's successful return from his Parthian campaigns. |
