Reverse description Fortuna standing left, draped in a long chiton, holding a rudder in her extended right hand resting on a globe at lower left, and a cornucopia in her left arm — the standard iconographic attributes of the goddess symbolizing prosperity and divine guidance. The senatorial authorization mark S C (Senatus Consulto) is placed in the field to either side of the figure at mid-height. The encircling legend FORTVNAE AVGVSTI runs around the upper periphery within a beaded border, dedicating the type to the fortune of the emperor.
