| Reverse description | Virtus, personification of military valor, stands facing left in full military attire — helmet, cuirass, and short military skirt — holding a trophy over the left shoulder with the right hand and resting the left hand on a round shield placed on the ground. A kneeling captive enemy, bound and in supplication, is depicted at lower left, symbolizing Roman martial supremacy. The mint mark TES·Θ· (first officina, Thessalonica) appears in the exergue. The encircling legend VIRTVS EXER-CITVS ROMANI runs around the periphery within a beaded border. |
