| Beschrijving keerzijde | Victory personified seated left upon a cippus (a low, rectangular funerary or honorary pillar), her head turned to the right, winged and draped, holding a palm branch in each outstretched hand. Before her stands a trophy of arms. At the base of the trophy kneels a captive barbarian, head turned right, being trampled or spurned by Victory. The exergue bears the mint mark CONS, denoting the Constantinople mint, with officina letters and field marks distributed accordingly. The reverse type celebrates Constantine's victories over barbarian peoples, referencing the fortified position at Daphne. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued to commemorate the founding of Constantinople in 328, a year before the city's formal dedication on May 11, 330, this follis belongs to a short commemorative series celebrating Constantine's new eastern capital. The CONSTANTINIANA DAFNE reverse type is specific to the Constantinople mint and was struck for an extremely limited window, making it one of the more distinctive issues from the city it was literally made to celebrate. RIC VII Constantinople #35 places it firmly in the first phase of the mint's commemorative output.
