| Reverse description | An equestrian figure, identified as Marcus Aemilius Lepidus, depicted in right profile mounted on a prancing horse and rendered in high relief. The rider wears military attire and appears to hold a palm branch, an attribute of victory, in his outstretched hand. A trophy or military standard is visible in the upper left field, alluding to the moneyer's ancestral military achievements. The legend M•LEPIDVS is inscribed in the lower exergue in clear Latin characters. The scene is enclosed within a beaded border, consistent with the decorative conventions of late-Republican denarii struck at the Rome Mint. |
