| Beschrijving keerzijde | Two helmeted soldiers standing facing one another, each in military attire and resting an interior hand upon a grounded standard, with a single legionary standard placed between them. The scene is rendered in the conventional late Roman schematic style, emphasizing the military strength and loyalty of the army. The legend GLORIA EXERCITVS arches across the upper field. The mint mark appears in the exergue, identifying the Alexandria officina responsible for striking this issue. A beaded border encircles the entire reverse design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The GLORIA EXERCITVS type was introduced around 330 AD as a deliberate propaganda effort to shore up military loyalty during Constantine's final years, when succession anxieties were mounting among his three surviving sons. Alexandria's mint was among the most productive of the eastern workshops turning out this type, identifiable by the ALΞ or SMALA mintmark depending on the specific officina. RIC VII #65 places this piece in the closing window of Constantine's reign — he died in May 337, still unbaptized until his deathbed.
