Reverse description Securitas, the personification of Security, standing left, draped in flowing robes, extending a wreath in her right hand and holding a long sceptre in her left. The figure is rendered in classical allegorical style, conveying the promise of stability during Otho's reign. The legend SECVRITAS P R is disposed around the field. The reverse type was a deliberate propaganda statement asserting the safety and security of the Roman people under Otho's authority.
