| Reversbeschreibung | Jupiter, standing left and holding a long sceptre in his left hand, presents a small figure of Victory to Diocletian, who stands facing right, draped and cuirassed, with a parazonium or sceptre in his right hand. The composition emphasises the divine sanction of imperial authority, a hallmark of Tetrarchic iconography. The reverse legend CONCORDIA MILITVM (on some specimens followed by a dot) proclaims the harmony between the emperor and his troops. In the exergue the officina and mint mark XXI appear, divided by two vertical lines, with the letter A above, indicating the first officina of the Cyzicus mint. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Diocletian's early coinage reflects the military compact on which his reign depended: he seized power in 284 AD when the army at Chalcedon acclaimed him emperor over the rival Numerian's praetorian prefect, Aper, whom Diocletian killed personally on the spot. The Cyzicus mint, operating in what is now northwestern Turkey, was among the eastern facilities he brought firmly under central control as he reorganized imperial production ahead of the tetrarchic reforms.
The silver content of these antoniniani was already severely debased by the time Diocletian issued them — his later 301 AD currency edict attempted to address the accumulated monetary damage of the third century crisis, with limited success.
