Reverse description Victory personified standing to the right, poised atop a globe, rendered in the classical allegorical style of the Augustan period. She holds a laurel wreath extended in her right hand and a palm branch in her left, both emblems of military triumph and divine favor. The figure is depicted with draped garments and outstretched wings, conveying a sense of dynamic forward motion. The encircling legend CAESARI DIVI F identifies the honoree as Caesar, son of the Deified Julius, affirming the legitimacy and divine lineage of Octavian. The reverse composition reflects the propagandistic imagery employed by Scarpus in support of the Octavian cause during the period surrounding the Battle of Actium.
