Reverse description Jupiter standing left, draped, holding a small figure of Victory in his extended right hand and a long sceptre in his left hand, with an eagle at his feet to the left. The deity is rendered in a dignified, classicizing style consistent with early Hadrianic workshop production. The abbreviation SC (Senatus Consultum) appears prominently in the lower field, authorizing the bronze coinage. The reverse legend is distributed around the upper and lateral periphery of the field.
