Issued from the Heraclea mint during the final years of Theodosius I's reign, when Arcadius held the title of Augustus in the East but real power remained with his father and the general Stilicho. The Heraclea mint — ancient Perinthus, on the northern shore of the Marmara — was one of the most active eastern mints of the late fourth century, producing heavy volumes of the maiorina denomination as the imperial administration struggled to maintain a coherent bronze coinage against persistent debasement pressures.
Theodosius died in January 395, splitting the empire between his two sons permanently. Coins struck in this window carry the ambiguity of that transition.
