Obverse description Right-facing bust of Emperor Constans I, pearl-diademed, draped, and cuirassed, with the emperor holding a globe in his right hand. The portrait is rendered in the late Roman imperial style, presenting the emperor in full regalia with the diadem indicating divine sanction of his rule. The obverse legend encircles the bust in Latin capitals. The globe held by the emperor serves as an iconographic reference to his universal dominion.
