| Reverse description | Jupiter stands facing, his head turned to the left, nude save for a chlamys draped over his left shoulder and arm. In his raised right hand he holds a thunderbolt, while his left hand supports a long vertical sceptre. The composition emphasizes the emperor's divine patronage under Jupiter Conservator. The reverse legend IOVI CONSERVATORI arcs around the field, and a mintmark appears in the exergue identifying the Nicomedia mint. The figure is rendered with classical proportions befitting a Tetrarchic aureus of the highest denomination. |
