Reverse description A Roman warship (galley) depicted in profile sailing to the right, shown with a detailed rowing bank of oars beneath the hull and a prominent stem post at the bow. At the stern, a figure — identified as Neptune or a personification of naval power — is seated, holding a sceptre or trident and extending one arm forward. A second standing figure is visible at the prow, likely representing Victory or a sailor. The scene is rendered with fine detail typical of Hadrianic mint work, evoking themes of imperial maritime power and Roman naval dominance. The reverse legend P M TR P COS III is distributed in the field around the galley, with the numeral III appearing in the lower exergual area.
