| Aanvullende informatie |
Constantius II inherited the eastern empire following the dynastic massacre of 337 AD, in which most of his male relatives were killed by soldiers — likely with his tacit approval, though he never admitted involvement. The GLORIA EXERCITVS type with two soldiers flanking two standards had already been introduced under Constantine I as a deliberate unification motif, binding army loyalty to the imperial image during a period of increasingly fractured command.
By the time Antioch struck this reduced-module issue, the earlier single-standard variant was already superseding it across most mints. RIC VIII 49 places this firmly in the transitional phase.
