| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Diocletian facing right, portrayed with short beard and strong imperial features. The laureate wreath is rendered in fine relief, and the paludamentum is visible at the shoulder. The encircling Latin legend reads IMP DIOCLETIANVS PF AVG, running clockwise around the periphery of the flan. The portrait is executed in the tetrarchic style, emphasizing authority and severity over naturalistic likeness. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Diocletian's currency reform of 294 AD — the most sweeping monetary overhaul since Augustus — introduced the follis as a silvered bronze denomination intended to restore confidence in a coinage system that had collapsed under decades of debasement. The Treveri mint (modern Trier) was one of the new or reorganized facilities activated specifically to meet the production demands of this reform, and issues from this mint bear the officina marks that allow attribution to individual workshop lines within the complex.
RIC VI Treveri 170a places this piece in the earliest phase of follis production at Trier, before the silvering percentage was quietly reduced.
