Reverse description The personification of Aeternitas (Eternity) depicted as a veiled female figure wearing a long tunic, standing left before a low garlanded altar. She extends both hands outward, holding the radiate head of Sol (the Sun) in her right hand and the crescent head of Luna (the Moon) in her left, symbolizing the eternal and cyclical nature of time. The composition reflects the Flavian dynastic ideology of perpetual imperial rule, with the reverse legend inscribed around the field within a beaded border.
