Reverse description Venus Victrix depicted draped, standing facing, head turned to the left, raising an apple aloft in her extended right hand while gathering drapery over her left shoulder with the left hand — a classic Tetrarchic rendering of the goddess as patroness of imperial victory. The Greek letter Δ appears in the left field as an officina mark, indicating the fourth workshop of the Cyzicus mint. The mintmark MKV is placed in the exergue, identifying the Cyzicus mint. The divided reverse legend VENERI V-ICTRICI frames the composition in the upper field.
