Reverse description The god Sol Invictus is depicted standing facing left in the field, his figure radiate-crowned, with the right hand raised in salutation and the left hand holding a globus, symbolising dominion over the world. The reverse legend SOLI INVICTO COMITI encircles the type, with the mint mark TF/* PLG appearing in the exergue, denoting the Prima Lugdunensis officina of the Treveri mint. The composition follows the standard Constantinian solar iconography established after the Battle of the Milvian Bridge, rendered in the confident, high-relief style characteristic of the Treveri workshop.
