| Obverse description | Laureate and cuirassed bust of Constantine I facing right, rendered in high relief with finely detailed hair beneath the laurel wreath. The emperor's effigy displays a strong, idealized profile characteristic of Constantinian portraiture. The encircling Latin legend reads CONSTANTINVS AVG, distributed around the periphery of the flan. The bust is truncated at the shoulder, showing the cuirass with paludamentum fastened at the right shoulder. The overall style reflects the confident, authoritative imperial imagery of the mature Constantinian period. |
