In her extended right hand she holds a pair of scales, lowered toward the ground, while her left hand supports a cornucopiae. The composition follows standard Roman allegorical conventions for Moneta reverses, with the figure occupying the full height of the die. The reverse legend encircles the type in the exergual field. |
