Reverse description Five lines of Latin text — IOVI / VOT·SVSC· / PRO·SAL· / CAES·AVG· / S·P·Q·R· — inscribed within a corona civica (civic oak wreath), the wreath tied at the top with a ribbon. The letters are boldly and evenly cut with interpuncts separating each word, enclosed by the wreath which fills the entire reverse field. The legend records the vows undertaken by the Senate and Roman People to Jupiter for the safety of Caesar Augustus, a deeply political and religious declaration rendered in monumental epigraphic style.
