| Reverse description | Votive inscription in two lines reading VOT XIII, set within a linear border enclosed by a laurel wreath, referencing the emperor's thirteenth regnal anniversary vow. The legend is rendered in bold, widely spaced Latin capitals, filling the central field. The wreath surround is a standard device employed at the Carthage mint for this series of nummi. The overall design is simple and epigraphic in character, with no figurative imagery beyond the border elements. |
