Beschrijving keerzijde Jupiter standing facing left, semi-draped with a chlamys falling over his left shoulder and lower body, holding a thunderbolt in his outstretched right hand and a long vertical scepter in his left. At the god's feet to the left, a small eagle is depicted. The reverse legend IOVI AVGG is distributed across the field, invoking Jupiter as divine patron of the two Augusti. Officina and mint marks appear in the exergue, consistent with Ticinum mint practice. The composition reflects the Tetrarchic theological program associating Diocletian's dynasty with Jovian divine authority.

Aanvullende informatie

The IOVI AVGG legend — "to the two Augusti" — reflects the political architecture Diocletian had constructed by 286 AD when he elevated Maximian to co-emperor, binding the college of rulers to divine patronage with Jupiter assigned to Diocletian and Hercules to Maximian. This coin dates to the years immediately before the Tetrarchy was formalized in 293, when the two-man arrangement was already straining under the pressure of simultaneous frontier crises in Britain, Persia, and along the Rhine. RIC V.2 28 is attributed to the Antioch mint for this period, placing production far from Rome at a time when imperial administration had effectively decentralized.
