| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Constantine I facing right, rendered in the authoritative imperial style characteristic of the Londinium mint. The emperor's effigy displays a radiate laurel wreath crown, with visible drapery over the left shoulder and cuirass detailing indicative of military dress. The encircling legend runs continuously around the bust within a beaded border. The portrait exhibits the bold, slightly stylized engraving typical of early fourth-century Romano-British mint production. |
