| Reverse description | The Ara Romae et Augusti at Lugdunum (modern Lyon), depicted as a large rectangular altar with its front face decorated with a corona civica flanked by nude male figures on each side. The altar is surmounted by a ceremonial superstructure and is flanked on either side by a tall column, each topped by a winged Victory holding a wreath. The abbreviated legend ROM ET AVG appears in the field. The composition commemorates the imperial cult sanctuary established at the confluence of the Rhône and Saône, a major symbol of Roman authority over the three Gallic provinces. |
