Reverse description Roma personified seated left upon a cuirass, draped and helmeted, extending a wreath in her right hand and holding a parazonium (short sword) in her left. Shields are depicted in the background field behind the figure, emphasizing Rome's martial prowess. The reverse type evokes themes of Roman military glory and civic virtue. The senatorial authorization mark S C (Senatus Consultum) flanks the central figure in the field, affirming that this bronze issue was struck by authority of the Senate.
