| Reverse description | A bull standing to the right in bold relief, representing the emblem of Legio III Gallica, rendered with careful attention to musculature and three-dimensional form. The animal stands on a ground line with its head turned slightly forward, conveying a sense of strength befitting a legionary symbol. The legend LEG III GALLICA P F is distributed around the periphery in Latin capitals, with the abbreviation P F (Pia Fidelis, 'Dutiful and Loyal') positioned in the lower exergual area beneath the bull. This type commemorates the loyalty of the Third Gallic Legion to the Gallic Empire under Victorinus. |
