Reverse description Neptune standing facing left, nude, right foot resting upon a globe, holding a trident upright in his left hand and a small aplustre (naval trophy) in his right; the composition alludes to Octavian's naval victories, particularly over Sextus Pompey. The legend CAESAR DIVI F (Caesar, son of the Divine [Julius]) is inscribed in the field to either side of the figure. The rendering is bold and vigorous, with the deity's athletic form executed in the high-relief tradition of late Republican coinage.
