| Obverse lettering | D N CONSTANTINVS PP AVG (Translation: Our Lord Constantine, the Perpetual Augustus) |
| Reverse description | A large cross potent on a three-stepped base (Golgotha), centrally positioned in the field, rendered in bold relief characteristic of early Byzantine hammered coinage. The circular Latin legend VICTORIA AVGV runs along the upper periphery, interrupted at the top by the cross, while the mint mark CONOB with an officina letter appears in the exergue, all within a beaded border. The design emphasizes the Christian triumphalist iconography prevalent under the Heraclian dynasty. |
