| Reverse description | The personification of Roma seated right upon a cuirass, depicted as a helmeted, armoured female figure in military dress. She holds an upright spear in her left hand while her right hand rests upon a large round shield. Various captured arms and armour are scattered in the field around her, evoking Roman martial dominance. The abbreviated legend ROMA appears in the field, with the senatorial authority mark S C (Senatus Consultum) prominently flanking the central figure. The composition reflects the grandeur typical of large-module Neronian aes coinage. |
