| Reverse description | The goddess Roma is depicted seated left on a cuirass, her right foot resting on a helmet, wearing a crested Attic helmet and semi-draped attire that leaves her torso partially bare. She extends her right hand to receive a small winged Victory figure, who stands on a globe and proffers a wreath toward Roma. A large round shield leans against her left side. The letters S and C (Senatus Consultum) flank the central figure in the left and right fields respectively, while the exergual inscription ROMA appears along the lower margin. The composition is bold and emblematic, framed by a beaded border, reflecting the monumental civic imagery characteristic of Neronian bronze coinage. |
