| Beschrijving voorzijde | Diademed bust of Constantine I facing right, with gaze directed upward in the idealized, quasi-divine manner characteristic of Constantinian portraiture. The emperor's hair is rendered in finely engraved parallel striations swept back from the forehead, with a plain diadem crossing the brow. The portrait fills the field boldly with a high-relief, naturalistic yet heroic treatment typical of court medallions. The circumferential Latin legend runs clockwise within a beaded border, and the flan exhibits a suspension hole pierced at the top, indicating ancient use as a presentation or donative piece. |

| Opschrift voorzijde | D N CONSTANTINVS AVG (Translation: Our lord emperor Constantinus) |
| Beschrijving keerzijde | Constantine I depicted standing to the left in full-length togate attire, conveying his dual role as both military ruler and civil magistrate. In his extended right hand he holds a globe symbolizing universal dominion, while his left hand grasps a short sceptre, emblems of imperial authority. The figure is rendered in the formal, hieratic style befitting a donative medallion, with finely detailed drapery folds. The Latin legend appears in the field and exergue, with the mint mark SMN identifying the Nicomedia mint. The overall composition reflects the Constantinian court's integration of traditional Roman senatorial imagery with Christian-era imperial iconography. |
