| Reverse description | Standing figure, likely a togated or armored male deity or founding figure, facing left and holding a long scepter or spear, with the arm extended; a plough or military standard may appear to the left, referencing the colonial foundation. The abbreviated colonial legend C I PAT DD is disposed around the field, identifying this issue as a product of the Colonia Iulia Paterna struck by decree of the local senate. A dotted border frames the design. The execution is characteristic of Augustan-era provincial bronzes from Africa Proconsularis, with bold if somewhat crude die engraving. |
