Obverse lettering CONSTANTINVS PF AVG
Reverse description Sol Invictus, the Unconquered Sun, stands facing left, his chlamys draped over the left shoulder and falling behind, his body otherwise unclothed. He raises his right hand in a gesture of benediction and holds an orb or globe in his lowered left hand, symbolizing dominion over the world. The reverse legend SOLI INVICTO COMITI (To the Companion, the Unconquered Sun) arcs around the field, with the mint mark TT (Ticinum, third officina) appearing in the exergue or field. The design reflects the close association between Constantine I and the solar cult during the early years of his reign.
