| 背面描述 | The emperor Arcadius is depicted standing left, head turned right, clad in full military attire, holding an upright spear in his right hand and resting his left hand upon a grounded shield. A winged Victory stands to his right, facing left, crowning the emperor with her extended right hand while holding a palm branch in her left hand. A mintmark appears in the exergue denoting the Cyzicus mint officina. The composition conveys imperial martial virtue, with the legend VIRTVS EXERCITI encircling the scene within a beaded border. |

Arcadius inherited the eastern half of a divided empire in 395 following his father Theodosius I's death — the last time a single ruler had controlled both halves. The VIRTVS EXERCITI type was a deliberate response to the military instability of those years, when Stilicho and the western court were actively contesting control of Illyricum and the loyalty of the eastern field armies was by no means guaranteed.
Cyzicus, on the Propontis, was one of the most productive mints of the late fourth century. RIC X #66 is among the commoner Arcadian issues from that facility, though attribution between officinae requires attention to the mintmark suffixes.
