| Reverse description | The large senatorial monogram S C (Senatus Consultum) dominates the central field in bold, deeply cut letters, authorizing the bronze coinage by decree of the Senate. Surrounding the S C in a continuous circular legend is the name and title of the moneyer Gaius Asinius Gallus, son of Gaius, one of the tresviri monetales responsible for the striking of gold, silver, and bronze coinage. The border is defined by a plain raised rim, and the legend reads clockwise from the right. |
