| Reverse description | A Capricorn strides to the right, bearing a cornucopia upon its left shoulder, symbolising abundance and royal fortune. A rudder and globe are depicted between the creature's forepaws, emblematic of dominion over sea and land. The regnal year in Roman numerals appears in the exergue or field below. The composition reflects Augustan dynastic imagery adopted by Juba II as a loyal client king. |
