| Beschrijving keerzijde | Standing figure of Diocletian, draped and cuirassed, positioned to the right, extending his right hand holding a parazonium while receiving a small Victory statuette from Jupiter, who stands to the left grasping a long sceptre. The composition emphasizes the divine legitimacy of imperial authority, a hallmark of tetrarchic iconography. The two figures face one another in a symmetrical arrangement typical of the CONCORDIA MILITVM reverse type. The reverse legend CONCORDIA MILITVM arcs across the field, proclaiming harmony between the emperor and his troops. The exergue may carry a mint mark denoting the issuing workshop. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
By 291–292, Diocletian's reform of the antoninianus was already underway — the coin increasingly sheds its debased billon identity in favor of a higher silver content as part of the broader monetary restructuring that would culminate in the argenteus around 294. The CONCORDIA MILITVM type belongs to a deliberate propaganda campaign addressed directly to the army, issued at a moment when Diocletian was cementing the political architecture of the Tetrarchy and needed military loyalty formalized in metal.
RIC V.2 284A places this among the Lugdunum issues of the period.
