| Reverse description | The goddess Ceres seated left on a throne, rendered in classical style with draped robes falling in careful folds. In her extended right hand she holds corn-ears and a poppy, symbols of agricultural abundance and her divine domain, while her left hand grasps a long torch. The composition is typical of Flavian reverse types celebrating divine patronage of the Roman state, with the reverse legend distributed around the field. |
