Aanvullende informatie

The GLORIA EXERCITVS type — "Glory of the Armies" — was introduced empire-wide around 330 AD as a deliberate propaganda instrument following Constantine's consolidation of sole rule after defeating Licinius in 324. Arelatum (Arles) had become one of the western empire's most productive mints by this point, elevated in administrative importance after Constantine favored it as a regional capital. The two-standard variant struck here at Arelate precedes the single-standard reduction introduced around 335, a shift that numismatists use as a precise chronological marker within what is otherwise a densely repetitive series.
