| Reverse description | The emperor advances to the right in full military attire, grasping a barbarian captive by the hair with his right hand while holding a Chi-Rho-topped labarum (imperial standard) in his left hand. This GLORIA ROMANORVM type is a standard reverse design of the Valentinianic period, symbolizing Roman military supremacy over conquered peoples. The reverse legend is distributed around the field, with the mint mark appearing in the exergue identifying the Siscia mint. The composition conveys imperial triumph and divine favor, consistent with late Roman iconographic conventions of the second half of the fourth century AD. |
