| Reverse description | Mars, the god of war, depicted standing in three-quarter view facing left in the center of the field, rendered in heroic nudity save for a plumed Corinthian helmet and military accoutrements. He holds a long spear diagonally in his right hand and carries a trophy or bundle of arms in his lowered left hand. The senatorial authorization mark S C (Senatus Consultum) is prominently placed in the field, S to the left and C to the right of the figure, in large incuse letters characteristic of Flavian-era bronze coinage. |
