The VICTORIA AVGGG reverse type — the three G's denoting three reigning Augusti simultaneously — places this coin squarely in the collegiate reign of Theodosius I, Gratian, and Valentinian II. Gratian was murdered at Lugdunum in August 383, which means issues bearing all three names continued circulating after one of the emperors they commemorated was already dead. The Siscia mint, operating in present-day Croatia, was among the most productive western mints of the late 4th century and was closed permanently around 388 following Theodosius's campaign against the usurper Magnus Maximus.
