| Reverse description | The celebrated Judaea Capta composition arranged symmetrically about a tall date palm tree, the enduring Roman symbol of the conquered province. To the left of the palm, the personification of Judaea is seated in an attitude of mourning, facing left, her head bowed in dejection, resting upon a heap of captured arms and armour. To the right of the palm stands a male captive, facing left with hands bound, depicted in a posture of submission. The large senatorial authorisation mark S C (Senatus Consultum) flanks the central group to left and right, while the abbreviated legend IVD CAP appears above the figures between the palm fronds. |
