"ANT AVG III VIR R P C", Praetorian galley right; Reverse: Legionary eagle (Aquila) between two standards, "LEG V" below. Nice round flan, though some scratches are present.The fifth Roman legion was founded by Julius Caesar and was the first Roman legion composed of provincial soldiers rather than Roman citizens. The fifth legion displayed great bravery against a charge of elephants and this was later selected as their emblem.
