Reverse description The goddess Salus, personification of health and welfare, is depicted seated left upon a throne, her robes draped elegantly across her lap and legs. She extends her right hand forward holding a patera over a snake-entwined altar positioned to her left, while her left arm rests upon the throne. The composition is framed by the encircling legend SALVS AVG in the upper field, with the senatorial authority mark S C prominently placed in the lower exergual area, attesting to the bronze coinage issued under senatorial decree.
