| Reverse description | Crude barbarian imitation of the Ara Romae et Augusti reverse type, copying the altar coinage struck at Lugdunum under Tiberius. The central design depicts a schematic altar or cult monument flanked by two standing figures, rendered in a highly stylised and degenerate manner. Additional crude figures or symbols appear in the upper field. The composition broadly reflects the twin-priest or Victory flanking the altar motif of the original Lugdunum issues, though execution is irregular and the details are heavily distorted. A garbled legend at the base of the reverse imitates the ROMAE ET AUGUSTO inscription of the prototype. |
