Description de l’avers Diademed, mantled bust left
Écriture de l’avers Latin
Légende de l’avers CIHHO-O AIIG (reading right to left and facing outwards)
(Translation: Seemingly meaningless, but appears to be a mirror image (as does the bust, perhaps due to the way it was taken from the official coin). Theodora`s Trier coins (minted 337-340) have the legend FL MAX THEO-DORAE AVG (Flavia Maximiana Theodora Augusta), which seems to be what CIHHO-O AIIG is copying)
Description du revers Victory standing on prow wings outspread, holding spear with right hand and leaning on shield with left hand. Palm-branch in left field and mintmark in exergue
Écriture du revers Latin
Légende du revers ZPT in exergue
(Translation: As with the obverse, the reverse legend is mirrored. Backwards, this is TRS for Trier, a common mint for Theodora`s coins)
