| Reverse description | Central type features a circular laurel wreath enclosing an object, likely a round shield or civic crown, flanked to the left by a military standard or vexillum. The arrangement alludes to the recovered Parthian standards and the senatorial honors bestowed upon Augustus. The legend S·P·Q·R·PAREN is inscribed in the upper field, and CONS·SVO appears in the lower field, together reading 'Senatus Populusque Romanus Parenti Conservatori Suo' — the Senate and People of Rome to their father and protector. The reverse design is struck on a slightly irregular flan typical of hammered Lugdunum coinage of this period. |
