Reverse description The goddess Victory is depicted standing in full figure, advancing left, draped in a flowing chiton with large wings spread behind her. She holds a wreath in her extended right hand and a palm branch over her left shoulder. At her feet, a globe rests on the ground line, symbolising universal Roman dominion. The senatorial authority mark S C (Senatus Consultum) is placed in the left and right fields flanking the figure. The composition reflects the standard Flavian Victory type struck to celebrate Vespasian's military and political consolidation of power.
