Reverse description Standing figure of Victoria (Victory) advancing left in dynamic pose, rendered in medium relief against a plain field. The goddess is depicted winged, nearly nude or lightly draped, with large spread wings rising prominently behind her. She extends her right arm forward, holding a wreath, while her left hand grasps a palm branch. The senatorial authority mark S C (Senatus Consultum) is placed in the central field flanking the figure to left and right respectively. The reverse legend VICTORIA NAVALIS is inscribed along the right margin, commemorating Vespasian's naval victories, likely referencing operations during the Jewish War or broader Flavian military campaigns.
