Reverse description Jupiter, fully nude save for a chlamys draped across his left shoulder, stands facing left in a commanding pose. In his extended right hand he holds a small figure of Victory standing on a globe, while his left hand rests upon a long vertical sceptre. To the left of Jupiter, an eagle stands with wings closed, holding a laurel wreath in its beak — the traditional attribute of Jovian iconography. An officina letter appears in the right field, and the mint mark SIS is inscribed in the exergue, identifying the Siscia workshop. The legend IOVI CON-SERVATORI, broken across the field, invokes Jupiter as the divine protector of the emperor.
Reverse script Latin
Reverse lettering IOVI CON-SERVATORI
