Reverse description Mars, the Roman god of war, depicted standing in full military attire facing left, wearing a crested helmet and cuirass. In his raised right hand he holds an upright spear, while his left arm rests upon a large oval shield set on the ground beside him. The solitary reverse legend MARTI appears in the left field, serving as a dedicatory inscription to the god. The figure is rendered with crisp detail characteristic of Hadrianic die-engraving, set within a plain field bordered by a beaded inner circle.
