Beschrijving keerzijde Jupiter enthroned, seated to the left upon a high-backed throne, his powerful figure rendered in the classicizing style of the Tetrarchic period. In his extended right hand he holds a small Victory standing on a globe, symbolizing the universal dominion granted by the king of the gods, while his left hand rests upon a long vertical sceptre. The reverse legend flanks the enthroned deity, with a officina mark letter (A or I) placed in the exergue below. The design asserts the divine sanction of Diocletian's rule through Jovian patronage, consistent with his adoption of the epithet Iovius.

Aanvullende informatie

By 292–294, Diocletian's monetary reforms were still taking shape — the antoninianus itself was a denomination in its last years of coherent identity, soon to be replaced wholesale by the post-reform radiates and then the follis after 294. Issues from this precise window carry the theological groundwork of the Tetrarchy's legitimizing ideology, with Diocletian publicly aligning himself with Jupiter and Maximian with Hercules. RIC V.2 33C places this piece among the issues of the reform's immediate run-up.
