Reverse description The reverse presents the civic crown (corona civica) of oak leaves, rendered as a dense, layered wreath encircling the central field. Within the wreath, the legend is inscribed in three horizontal lines across the center of the field, a typology closely associated with the Augustan tradition of the ob cives servatos honor. The wreath is boldly struck and fills the flan, with the oak leaves visible though worn from circulation. No exergue line or additional symbols are present.
