| Reverse description | Standing figure of Mars Ultor depicted in three-quarter view within a tetrastyle or hexastyle temple façade, shown in full military panoply including helmet, breastplate, and short military cloak. The god holds a spear in his right hand and a legionary eagle standard in his left. The temple is rendered with multiple columns surmounted by a decorated entablature and pediment, reflecting the vowed Temple of Mars Ultor in the Forum of Augustus. The legend MAR VLT is divided to either side of the central cult figure, with MAR to the left and VLT to the right. |
