Britain was an attractive target for Rome because of its material wealth — particularly mines and slaves
The reverse depicts Spes Augusta (Hope)
The reverse reads "EX SC PP OB CIVES SERVATOS", meaning "Senatus Consulto" (approved by the Senate), "Pater Patriae" (to the father of his country), "Ob Cives Servatos" (For having saved the citizens)
