| Reverse description | The emperor stands facing, head turned to the right, depicted in military attire and holding a labarum-style standard in his right hand and a globus (orb) in his left, symbolizing universal dominion. The composition is characteristic of the GLORIA ROMANORVM reverse type common to late fourth-century bronze coinage. The legend is divided across the field reading GLORIA-RO-MANORVM, arcing around the central figure within a beaded border. The mint mark appears in the exergue, identifying the Heraclea mint. The reverse conveys the ideology of Roman imperial glory and military supremacy. |
