AR denarius
19mm, 3.97g
Head of Venus right, wearing pendant earring and necklace
CAESAR, trophy of Gallic arms, captives seated at base

Thanks

Since no one else has answered you question is several days, I'll try.

"Is this correct?"  Yes, basically.

I would change this description to:

Diademed head of Venus. Small cupid behind shoulder.

trophy of Gallic arms between seated male and female captives.

46-45 BC, Spanish mint.

RRC #468/1; Syd #1014; RSC #13; Sear 1404.
