| Reverse description | The personification of Roma stands facing left in a dynamic pose, attired in an Amazon-style short tunic leaving the right shoulder bare. She extends her right hand to present a small Palladium — a statuette of Minerva — while her left hand holds a long spear resting obliquely against her shoulder. The figure is rendered in the classicising style typical of Hadrianic bronzes, with the abbreviated legend ROMA flanking the figure and the senatorial authorisation mark S C prominently placed in the field. |
