| Reverse description | Two helmeted and cloaked soldiers standing facing one another, each resting their inner hand on a grounded spear and their outer hand upon a shield set at their side; between them stand two legionary standards adorned with roundels, the central motif of the GLORIA EXERCITVS type. The reverse legend GLOR-IA EXERC-ITVS is distributed in two lines flanking the standards, while the mintmark SMKB appears in the exergue, denoting the Sacra Moneta of Cyzicus, second officina. The composition is symmetrical and formally rendered, consistent with the standardized military iconography adopted across all Constantinian mints during this period. |
