| Reverse description | A draped female figure, personifying Quies (Rest or Repose), seated left upon a low throne or base, holding a branch in her extended right hand and resting her left hand at her side. The composition alludes to the eternal rest granted to the deified emperor following his death and consecratio. The surrounding Latin legend REQVIES OPTIMOR MERIT — meaning 'the rest of the most worthy' — encircles the field, with the mint mark RS (denoting the Rome mint, second officina) visible in the exergue. A beaded border frames the design. |
