| Reverse description | Cupid seated astride a goat walking to the right, set within a laurel wreath that frames the entire design. Above the central motif, the pilei (conical caps) of the Dioscuri, Castor and Pollux, are depicted as a pair. A thyrsus, the attribute of Liber (Bacchus), is placed in the exergue below the ground line. The reverse is anepigraphic, carrying no legend, with the wreath border serving as the sole framing device. |
