| Reverse description | The reverse displays the large senatorial authority monogram S C (Senatus Consultum) prominently in the center field, rendered in bold, deeply incuse letters characteristic of early Augustan bronze coinage. Surrounding the S C, a circular legend names the moneyer and his office, reading continuously around the coin's inner border. The layout follows the standard Augustan Triumviri Monetales reverse type, in which the moneyer's full name and titles encircle the S C mark, affirming senatorial authorization for the issue. The lettering is well-spaced and clearly executed in the Latin capital script of the period. |
