| Reverse description | A wild boar strides to the right, pierced by a hunting spear and vigorously attacked by a hound below, evoking the mythological Calydonian boar hunt associated with Diana. The dynamic composition conveys vigorous movement and narrative energy, with the hound shown beneath the boar in a posture of assault. The legend C•HOSIDI•C•F arcs along the lower exergual area, identifying the moneyer as Gaius Hosidius, son of Gaius. The serrated flan edge is clearly visible, and a border of dots frames the entire scene. |
