| Reverse description | A modius — a trapezoidal grain measure — rendered in bold relief at the centre of the field, surmounted by a spray of ears of corn fanning outward symmetrically above it. The design is set within a plain field with the abbreviated legend COS III divided on either side of the central type, all within a beaded border. The modius was a prominent symbol of imperial beneficence and grain supply in Hadrianic coinage. |
