Additional information

Honorius was the younger son of Theodosius I, appointed co-emperor of the West in 393 at age eight while his brother Arcadius took the East. The CONCORDIA AVGG reverse type — invoking harmony between the two emperors — was a piece of official propaganda during a period when the two halves of the empire were administered entirely separately and rarely in genuine agreement. The Antioch mint produced this type across a wide window, making precise dating within the reign essentially impossible without die study.
