| Reverse description | Ceres standing facing left, draped in a long flowing garment rendered with fine vertical pleating, holding a lit torch in her right hand and a long sceptre or cornucopiae in her left, beneath a large curved plough (or ard) arching over the scene. The legend C•VIBIVS•C•F•C•N is inscribed in the left field, reading downward, identifying the moneyer as Gaius Vibius, son of Gaius, grandson of Gaius. The composition alludes to agrarian abundance and the gens Vibia's connection to Ceres. |
