| Reverse description | Victory personified, winged and draped, seated right upon a globe, her hands resting upon her lap in a composed, hieratic pose. The globe beneath her feet symbolizes Roman dominion over the world. The reverse legend TR POT XXIIII is divided around the field, recording Augustus's twenty-fourth holding of tribunician power and thus providing a precise date for the issue. The overall composition is compact and well-centered, consistent with the small flan of the gold quinarius denomination. |
