Reverse description The personification of Roma seated left on a cuirass, depicted in military dress and wearing a Corinthian helmet. She holds an upright spear in her extended right hand while her left arm rests upon a large round shield. Various pieces of armour and weaponry — including helmets, shields, and greaves — are scattered in the field around her, reinforcing the martial iconography. The reverse legend ROMA appears in the upper field, with the senatorial authority mark S C flanking the central type in the exergual area.
