Maiorina - Theodosius I GLORIA ROMANORVM, Heraclea

Theodosius I issued this denomination during the final years of his sole reign, a period defined by the definitive suppression of paganism across the empire — the Edict of Thessalonica in 380 had already mandated Nicene Christianity, but it was his decrees of 391–392 that formally banned sacrifices and closed temples. The Heraclea mint, one of the more productive eastern workshops of the period, continued striking through his death in January 395, the last moment a single ruler commanded both halves of the empire.

RIC IX 27a places this among the later Heraclean issues. The mint operated under the officina system, and workshop letters on these pieces allow attribution to specific production lines within the facility.
