| Reversbeschreibung | Constantius II stands frontally, his head turned to the left, diademed, draped, and cuirassed, holding in his right hand a vexillum-standard bearing the Chi-Rho christogram on its banner and a transverse spear in his left hand. To the emperor's right, a winged Victory stands, extending a laurel wreath to crown him while holding a palm branch in her other hand. A control letter appears in the left field, and the exergue bears the officina letter and mint mark flanked by a dot and a star, identifying the Siscia mint. The reverse legend, referencing Constantine's vision at the Milvian Bridge, encircles the composition in bold Latin capitals. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The HOC SIGNO VICTOR ERIS ("by this sign you shall be victor") coinage was struck at Siscia in 350 AD — the precise year Magnentius usurped the western throne, forcing Constantius II into a prolonged civil war that would last until 353. The slogan was almost certainly propagandistic, invoking the Constantinian tradition of the Chi-Rho as divine military guarantee at a moment when that claim was being directly challenged.
Siscia, positioned on the Sava River in modern Croatia, was one of the most active mints of the later empire. RIC VIII 282 belongs to a tightly defined emission from this period, before the mint's output shifted to support the mobilization against Magnentius.
