| Obverse description | Laureate and cuirassed bust of Constantius I facing right, depicted with pronounced facial features and paludamentum visible at the shoulder. The effigy is rendered in the bold, high-relief style characteristic of the Tetrarchic period, with the laurel wreath clearly articulated across the brow. The encircling Latin legend reads CONSTANTIVS AVG, distributed around the periphery of the flan. The overall composition reflects the standardized imperial portraiture introduced under Diocletian's monetary reforms, emphasizing authority and military gravitas. |
