| Reverse description | The winged goddess Victoria stands facing right atop the prow of a warship (rostrum), rendered in flowing draped robes with large spread wings visible behind her figure. She extends her right hand forward holding a wreath of victory, while her left hand grasps a long palm frond — both emblems of triumph. The monumental senatorial mark of value S C (Senatus Consultum) flanks the central figure to left and right in the lower field. The composition commemorates Vespasian's naval victories and the Flavian dynasty's claim to power. |
