| Beschrijving keerzijde | Two Victories standing facing one another in confronted pose, each winged and draped, jointly supporting an inscribed votive shield resting upon a low altar decorated with a diamond or lozenge pattern. The composition closely follows the official VICTORIAE LAETAE PRINC PERP type issued at London, but the execution is barbarous with blundered and degenerate letterforms throughout. The exergue retains a garbled imitation of the PLN London mintmark. The shield bears a debased rendering of the VOT PR votive inscription. |

Barbarous radiates and their fourth-century successors were produced in enormous quantities across the northwestern provinces whenever official supply dried up — and in Roman Britain, it dried up often. The London mint closed around 325 AD, leaving a coinage vacuum that local imitators filled with decreasing fidelity to the prototype. By the time pieces like this were being struck, probably well after 380, the VICTORIAE LAETAE PRINC PERP reverse type being imitated was itself decades old.
The RIC VII 154 designation with variant notation signals a die that diverges enough from official specification to resist clean attribution — typical of the spectrum between careful imitation and outright fantasy coinage that characterizes late British barbarous production.
