| Reverse description | A votive inscription arranged in stacked horizontal lines within a laurel wreath, reading VT / XXX / V / CON, with additional lettering in the exergue. The wreath border is rendered in a simplified, barbaric manner consistent with Germanic imitative production. The design imitates late Roman nummus reverses bearing votive legends commemorating imperial anniversaries, here referencing the tricennalia and quinquennalia of Theodosius II. The overall execution is crude, with irregular flan and shallow, uneven strike characteristic of unofficial Germanic workshop production. |
