Reverse description Emperor Honorius in military attire on horseback advancing to the right, raising his right hand in a gesture of imperial authority, with the legend GLORIA ROMANORVM (Glory of the Romans) divided around the field. A captive or figure is depicted beneath the horse, symbolizing Roman victory over barbarian enemies. The mint mark ANTE or ANTB or ANTΓ appears in the exergue, denoting the Antioch mint and respective officina. The reverse type follows the standard late Roman military imagery affirming imperial power and military triumph. The design, though worn, retains clear traces of the horseman composition.
