She rests her right foot on a helmet and holds a parazonium (short sword) in her lowered left hand, while her raised right arm extends a spear or parazonium toward the upper left. A long vertical spear or hasta is visible behind her figure. The legend P M TR P COS III is distributed around the upper and outer periphery, with VIRT AVG flanking the figure in the mid-field and the senatorial authority mark S C positioned prominently in the lower field to either side of the figure, all within a beaded border. |
