| Reverse description | A facing military helmet adorned with stag horns flanked by a dagger (pugio) to the left and a bipennis (double-headed axe) to the right, all rendered in bold relief against a flat field. The helmet features a prominent cheek guard and appears to rest on a small base. These military attributes are associated with the Cantabrian Wars conducted under Augustus and represent the weapons of defeated Iberian tribes. The surrounding legend P CARISIVS LEG PRO PR encircles the devices, identifying the issuing legate Publius Carisius. The composition is characteristic of the military mint issues struck in Hispania under Augustan authority. |
