| Reverse description | A prize table depicted in three-quarter perspective, its legs decorated with confronting sphinxes or gryphons facing one another. Upon the table rest a prominent urn and a victor's wreath, symbols of the Neronian games. A round shield leans against one of the table legs in the lower field. The composition commemorates the Certamen Quinquennale, the quinquennial games (Neronia) instituted by Nero in AD 60. The reverse legend is arranged around the central device in a concise abbreviated form referencing the establishment of these games at Rome. |
