Reverse description The abbreviated senatorial legend S·P·Q·R appears in two bold lines within the field, enclosed by a prominent civic oak wreath (corona civica) tied at the base. The wreath is rendered with detailed leaf and berry clusters arranged symmetrically, and a small circular object, possibly a ring or berry, is visible at the crown of the wreath. The composition reflects the ideological authority of the Roman Senate during the Year of the Four Emperors, invoking republican tradition on an imperial coinage.
