| Obverse description | Radiate, draped bust of Constantius I Chlorus facing right, rendered in the characteristic late third-century style with a prominent radiate crown denoting the antoninianus denomination. The drapery is rendered across the left shoulder and chest. The surrounding circular legend is incuse in Latin capitals, bordered by a beaded inner rim. The portrait displays the idealized, somewhat schematic features typical of Tetrarchic imperial coinage. |

| Reverse description | Two standing figures — identified as Constantius Chlorus and Galerius — face one another in the field, each depicted draped and cuirassed. Between them, a kneeling captive is shown in a submissive posture. Both emperors extend their hands toward a Victory standing on a globe, jointly held between them, symbolising their shared authority and martial success. The reverse legend encircles the design, with the mintmark XXIA appearing in the exergue. |
