| Aanvullende informatie |
Constantius II received his Caesar elevation in 324, making these Trier issues among the earliest coins struck in his name at a western mint. The GLORIA EXERCITVS type — introduced empire-wide following Constantine's consolidation of sole rule — was a deliberate propaganda exercise, projecting military cohesion at a moment when the army had just finished fighting itself during the civil war against Licinius. Trier's mint was one of the most productive in the west during this window, supplying the Rhine frontier garrisons directly.
The two-standards variant was phased out in favor of a single-standard version around 335, giving this specific type a tight production window.
