| Additional information |
The single-standard variant of GLORIA EXERCITVS was introduced around 335 as a deliberate reduction from the earlier two-standard type — a subtle but meaningful shift that coincided with Constantine I's preparations for the division of the empire among his sons. Antioch was one of the most productive eastern mints of the period, and its output during these final Constantine years was immense. RIC VII 109 is not rare in absolute terms, but Antioch fabric tends toward hasty workmanship in this series, with frequent off-center strikes and poorly mixed alloy visible in surface color.
