Reverse description Standing figure of Roma facing right, helmeted and draped, holding a Victoriola (small Victory statuette) in her extended right hand and an eagle-tipped sceptre carried transversely over her left shoulder. The composition emphasises Roma's martial and victorious character, reinforced by the legend ROM RENASC proclaiming the symbolic rebirth of Rome during the turbulent civil war coinage of 68–69 AD. The figure's stance and attributes reflect the propagandistic intent of the type, associating the issuing authority with the restoration of Roman glory.
