VENVS VICTRIX Venus standing facing, her head turned left, holding helmet in her right hand and scepter with her left, leaning on an oval shield; captives seated each side. BMC 86. Cohen 612b.

Traces of the Victory can be visible behind the helmet, which confirms that the issue with the helmet is posterior to the ones with the Victory.
