| Reverse description | Fortuna stands to the right, holding a rudder resting on a globe in her right hand and a cornucopia in her left hand, symbolizing good fortune and abundance. Facing her, Spes advances to the left, raising a flower in her right hand and lifting her robe with her left, personifying hope. The two allegorical figures are rendered in the classicizing style typical of Hadrianic bronzes. The legend TR POT COS II is distributed in the upper field, while S C (Senatus Consultum) appears in the lower exergual field, authorizing the issue by decree of the Senate. |
