| Reverse description | The goddess Salus stands facing left in a graceful contrapposto pose, draped in a long stola and palla. She extends her right arm to feed a serpent coiling upward from an altar to her left, while her left hand rests on a long sceptre or rudder planted at her feet. The composition is framed by the senatorial authority mark S C (Senatus Consultum) in large letters in the left and right fields. The surrounding legend SALVS AVG is distributed in the upper field, invoking the health and well-being of the emperor under the sanction of the Senate. |
