| Reverse description | Minerva, the goddess of wisdom and war, stands facing left in full figure, clad in a long chiton and aegis adorned with the gorgoneion. She extends her right hand forward to pour a libation from a patera over a small altar at her feet, while her left hand holds an upright spear. The composition reflects the classical Hadrianic treatment of divine figures, with fine drapery folds rendered in relief. The abbreviated Latin legend occupies the field around the goddess. |
