| Reverse description | Winged Victory, draped, stands left atop the prow of a galley, holding a long spear in her right hand and resting a large round shield on her left arm, evoking the naval and martial glory of the new capital. The reverse field is plain, with all identifying marks confined to the exergue, where a dot precedes the mint and officina letters. The composition references Hellenistic Victory imagery adapted to Constantinian imperial propaganda. The exergue bears the mintmark of the Heraclea mint with the appropriate officina letter (e.g., SMHA, SMHΓ, or SMHΔ depending on die). |
