Reverse description Salus, the goddess of health and well-being, is depicted seated to the right on a high-backed throne or chair, rendered in flowing drapery that cascades over her lower body. She extends her right arm forward to feed a serpent that rises before her, the serpent being her traditional divine attribute. Her left arm rests at her side. The legend P M TR P COS III is distributed around the upper and lateral fields, while SAL AVG appears in the lower exergual area, identifying the figure as Salus Augusti — the health of the emperor. A beaded border encircles the entire composition.
