Reverse description The personification of Felicitas, draped in a flowing chiton, stands facing left in a composed, frontal pose. She raises a caduceus — the winged staff of Mercury, symbol of prosperity and commerce — aloft in her extended right hand, while her left arm cradles a cornucopiae, the horn of abundance. The figure is rendered in the elegant classicizing style typical of Trajanic state coinage, conveying themes of imperial happiness and good fortune. The reverse legend is distributed around the field in two registers, framing the allegorical figure.
