| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Constantine I facing right, rendered in the late Constantinian imperial style with a pronounced diadem of laurel. The effigy displays a cuirassed shoulder visible at the bust truncation, conveying military authority. The obverse legend CONSTANTINVS MAX AVG runs clockwise around the periphery, separated from the design by a beaded border. The portrait exhibits the characteristic strong jaw and upward gaze associated with official Constantinian portraiture of this period. The coin's surface retains a dark green patina with earthen deposits typical of long-buried bronze coinage. |
