From the Art Institute of Chicago record
The front (obverse) of this coin depicts the goddess Juno, facing right. She is shown veiled and wearing a diadem as well as a drop style earring. A sceptre is visible to her lower left. On the back (reverse) a type of chariot called a quadriga is driven by the goddess of victory, who holds a wreath in her right hand.
