| Reverse description | A seated figure facing right extends an arm toward a serpent, a design derived from Roman imperial reverse types, likely imitating a Salus or similar deity feeding a snake coiled around an altar or rising before her. The composition is rendered in a barbarous, schematic style with simplified lines and crude execution characteristic of Germanic imitative coinage. A partially legible legend in debased Latin characters encircles the design, copied imprecisely from Roman prototypes. |
