| Reverse description | A standing female figure, identified as Spes (Hope), is depicted facing left in the central field, rendered in the conventional Roman allegorical style. She raises her right hand holding a flower toward her face, while her left hand gathers her drapery at the thigh — the standard iconographic attributes of the personification of Hope. The figure is shown in a flowing stola with the garment creating a sense of gentle movement. The surrounding legend TR POT COS III CENSOR is distributed around the periphery, with SC (Senatus Consulto) in the field to either side, affirming the senatorial authority for the issue. The reverse field shows considerable wear and surface porosity consistent with circulation use. |
