Details

The designation for Sol's reverse side is wschl. an incorrect one, and one should see here the image of Caracalla, with spear and laurel wreath, who profiles himself as "master of the world". The 'Sol' on the back does not wear a sun crown and normally never carries a spear and / or sword (but a globe).
