| Aversbeschreibung | Radiate bust of Maximianus draped in imperial mantle, facing left, holding an eagle-tipped sceptre; on some specimens the head is turned to the right. The legend encircles the bust, rendered in incuse Latin capitals. The portrait reflects the tetrarchic style characteristic of late Roman imperial coinage, with a strongly modelled, military bearing. |

| Reversbeschreibung | Jupiter stands facing left, his right hand extended to hold a Victory upon a globe and his left hand grasping a long sceptre; an eagle stands at his feet. The composition follows the canonical Jovian reverse type prevalent during the tetrarchic period, symbolising divine sanction of imperial authority shared between the two Augusti. The legend appears in the field and exergue, with the mintmark 'A' in the exergue identifying the emission. |

Maximianus issued this type as co-emperor under the Tetrarchic system Diocletian was assembling in the late third century, and the IOVI AVGG legend — invoking Jupiter on behalf of both Augusti — was a deliberate theological statement about divine legitimacy. Diocletian took Jovius as his divine epithet, associating himself directly with Jupiter, while Maximianus was assigned Herculius, making his appearance on a Jovian coinage a carefully calibrated gesture of dynastic unity rather than personal claim.
The RIC V.2 384 attribution places this among the Diocletianic mint output at a moment when the antoninianus itself was nearing administrative obsolescence — the currency reform of 294 would effectively retire the denomination.
