| Obverse description | Veiled and draped posthumous effigy of the deified Constantine I, rendered in three-quarter facing bust to the right, the veil indicative of his consecrated divine status. The legend DV CONSTANTI-NVS PT AVGG encircles the portrait, proclaiming him as the divine father of the Augusti. The die-work reflects the commemorative workshop style characteristic of Constantinian-era posthumous issues, with a formal, hieratic treatment of the imperial image befitting his deification. |
