Reverse description A tall inscribed cippus (stone monument or boundary marker) occupies the central field, depicted in perspective with a flat top and tapering body, bearing a multi-line Latin inscription across its face. The monument is rendered with care to suggest three-dimensionality. The moneyer's name and titles appear in the outer legend encircling the central device, referencing Lucius Vinicius, son of Lucius, in his capacity as Triumvir Monetalis. The overall composition commemorates Augustus's funding of road construction, an act of public benefaction formally recorded by the Senate and Roman people.
