| Beschrijving keerzijde | A Roman soldier, helmeted and in full military attire, stands facing left in a commanding pose, holding a spear or standard in his right hand and a shield on his left arm. Beneath him, a fallen horseman — identified as a barbarian enemy — is depicted on the ground, his horse collapsing beneath him, conveying the triumph of Roman imperial power. The scene is rendered in the dynamic military idiom characteristic of the FEL TEMP REPARATIO series. The reverse legend FEL TEMP REPARATIO encircles the field, and the mint mark TSA or TSε appears in the exergue, identifying the Thessalonica mint and officina. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The FEL TEMP REPARATIO ("happy times are returning") coinage was launched under Constans and Constantius II as a coordinated empire-wide issue beginning in 348 AD, ostensibly celebrating the 1100th anniversary of Rome's founding. The Thessalonica mint, one of the more prolific eastern workshops, struck the falling horseman type across multiple officinae, each distinguished by officina letter in the exergue.
RIC VIII 115 belongs to the phase before Magnentius's usurpation in 350 disrupted western production and concentrated demand on eastern mints — Thessalonica among them.
