Reverse description Neptune, the Roman god of the sea, depicted standing to the left in a commanding pose, his right foot raised and resting upon a globe symbolising dominion over the seas. In his right hand he holds an acrostolium (a curved prow ornament), an attribute referencing naval supremacy, while his left hand grasps a long trident, his principal divine emblem. The figure is rendered with classical restraint, the deity shown nude or semi-draped in the style common to Hadrianic reverse types. The abbreviated consular legend COS III appears in the field.
