Obverse: Laureate bust of Concordia, right. Dotted border.
Legend: CONCORDIAE oCONCORDIAI

Reverse: Victoria walking to the right, carrying a palm branch decorated with four crowns. Dotted border.
Legend: L VINICI

Comment: The significance of the concord must be sought in the triumvirate between Caesar, Pompey and Crassus, while the crowns that hang from the palm on the reverse would be an allusion to Pompey's victories, one of them was gold that Pompey usually wore in official ceremonies.
