| Reverse description | A spread-winged aquila (legionary eagle) displayed centrally above a rectangular altar or base shown in perspective, its wings outstretched in heraldic fashion. Flanking the eagle on either side stand two military standards (signa), each surmounted by a series of phalerae (disc ornaments) on a vertical shaft, with the letter P to the lower left and R to the lower right of the composition. The legend SIGNA appears in the exergue below the baseline, with the full reading SIGNA P R signifying the Standards of the Roman People. The bold, schematic rendering of the military imagery reflects the emergency mint production of the civil war period. |
