| Reverse description | The personification of Securitas (Safety of the Roman People) is depicted seated left on a throne or chair, her head resting pensively upon her right arm in a pose of relaxed composure, while her left hand holds a long sceptre. The figure is rendered in draped attire with fine detail in the folds of the garment. The reverse legend SECVRITAS P R is distributed in the field to the left and right of the seated figure, with the open field lending the composition a monumental quality typical of Flavian aureus reverses. |
