| Reverse description | The personification of Virtus, goddess of military valor and virtue, is depicted seated left upon a cuirass with a large round shield propped at her side. She holds a parazonium — a short, broad-bladed sword symbolic of military authority — in her left hand, and a long spear in her right. The figure is rendered in a composed, majestic posture, conveying martial dignity. The abbreviated legend COS III flanks the central figure, with a decorative pellet following the numeral on the right. |
