Reverse description The winged goddess Victoria, draped and seated to the right upon a globe, holds a laurel wreath extended forward with both hands. Her left wing is prominently visible, spreading upward behind her figure. The composition conveys the imperial ideology of perpetual Roman victory and world dominion symbolized by the globe beneath her. The reverse legend is inscribed in two lines across the field, referencing Caligula's tribunician powers, and the entire design is framed by a beaded border consistent with the hammered coinage of the Julio-Claudian period.
