| Reverse description | The emperor, depicted in military dress, strides boldly to the right, grasping a kneeling barbarian captive by the hair with his right hand while carrying a Chi-Rho labarum standard in his left. This composition, a powerful statement of Roman imperial dominance and Christian piety, is framed by the legend GLORIA ROMANORVM. The exergue bears the Aquileia mint mark SMAQP, denoting the Sacra Moneta workshop at Aquileia, officina prima. The design conveys the ideological message of Roman military triumph over foreign enemies. |
