Reverse description Annona, the personification of the imperial grain supply, seated left on a throne or chair, draped, holding a bundle of corn-ears in her right hand extended forward and resting her left arm on a modius or supporting a cornucopia. The figure is rendered in the classical allegorical tradition, emphasizing Rome's commitment to provisioning its citizens. The senatorial authorisation mark S C (Senatus Consultum) appears in the left and right fields respectively. The reverse legend ANNONA AVGVST is distributed around the upper periphery of the coin.
