Reverse description The personification of Roma stands facing left in military attire, wearing a crested helmet and long military dress. In her extended right hand she holds a small figure of Victory, and in her left hand a long vertical spear. The composition conveys martial authority and is typical of Flavian dynastic reverse imagery celebrating Rome's power. The legend ROMA appears in the field with S C (Senatus Consultum) flanking the central figure, confirming senatorial authorization of the bronze issue.
