| Reverse description | Four-line votive legend stacked within the field and enclosed by a beaded or olive wreath border. The inscription names the Ostrogothic king Athalaric in the nominative, asserting his royal title. The wreath is rendered in low relief with tied ends visible at the base, a common decorative motif on Ostrogothic nummi of the Roman mint. The overall design follows the tradition of Roman senatorial coinage adapted for Ostrogothic royal issues. |
