| Reverse description | The goddess Salus, personification of health and welfare, seated left on a high-backed throne, rendered in flowing robes with drapery falling in elegant folds. She extends her right hand to pour a libation from a patera over a small altar at her feet, while her left hand holds a long vertical sceptre. The legend SALVS AVGVSTA arcs across the upper field, with the senatorial authority mark S C in large letters in the lower exergual field, all within a beaded border. |
