Obverse description Helmeted and cuirassed bust of Constantinopolis facing left, wearing a crested helmet adorned with a plume, depicted in a commanding military profile. The legend CONSTAN-TINOPOLIS encircles the bust, identifying the personification of the newly founded imperial capital. The portrait displays the characteristically bold late Roman engraving style, with strong facial features and detailed armor visible at the shoulder. A Victory or sceptre appears behind the bust. The flan is irregular, as typical of workshop production at Arelatum during the Constantinian period.
