| Obverse lettering | D N CONSTA-NS P F AVG (Translation: Our Lord Constans Pious and Fortunate Emperor) |
| Reverse description | A four-line votive inscription enclosed within a finely rendered laurel wreath tied at the base, commemorating the Vicennalia and anticipating the Tricennalia of the Constantinian dynasty. The wreath is composed of paired leaves with berries at intervals, conveying the honorific and celebratory nature of the issue. The mint mark appears in the exergue below the wreath, identifying the officina of the Nicomedia mint. No figurative imagery is present; the design is entirely epigraphic in character. |
