| Reverse description | Jupiter, the chief deity of the Roman pantheon, stands facing left in a commanding pose, his nude or semi-draped figure rendered with classical authority. In his extended right hand he holds a thunderbolt, the quintessential divine attribute, while his left hand rests upon a long vertical sceptre. The composition underscores the theological underpinning of Tetrarchic ideology, associating the ruling Augusti with Jovian protection and divine legitimacy. A beaded border encloses the reverse field and the encircling legend. |
