| Aversbeschreibung | Laureate, cuirassed bust of Constantius II facing right, depicted with a youthful portrait typical of his Caesar period. The emperor wears a laurel wreath and articulated military cuirass with paludamentum visible at the shoulder. The obverse legend encircles the bust in Latin characters, identifying the emperor by his full titles. The portrait exhibits the compact, stylized rendering characteristic of Constantinian-era provincial mint production. |

| Reversbeschreibung | Two helmeted soldiers standing facing one another, each holding a reversed spear in the outer hand and resting the inner hand upon a grounded shield. Between them stand two military standards, each surmounted by a dot on the banner, a type associated with the two-standards variant of the GLORIA EXERCITVS series. The reverse legend GLORIA EXERCITVS is distributed across the upper field, with the mint mark appearing in the exergue identifying the Antioch officina. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The GLORIA EXERCITVS ("Glory of the Army") type was introduced empire-wide following Constantine I's reorganization of the coinage around 330 AD, functioning as explicit propaganda directed at the military during a period of intensifying dynastic tension. Constantius II, still subordinate to his father at this point, was assigned the eastern territories — Antioch among his principal mints.
The Antioch mint operated across multiple officinae simultaneously during this window, and RIC VII 88 is specific to one of those workshops. The two-soldier, two-standard variant that defines this early phase of the type was later reduced to a single standard, a shift that helps narrow attribution when mint marks are worn.
