Reverse description A lion standing left with head turned to face the viewer frontally, a powerful and imposing device symbolizing imperial virtue and martial strength; above the lion, a club is depicted horizontally in the upper field. The reverse legend VIRTVS AVGVSTI arcs across the field, and the exergue bears the officina letter and mintmark PARL, identifying the first officina of the mint of Arelatum. The composition is bold and commanding, consistent with the artistic conventions of early fourth-century Roman gold coinage.
