| Beschrijving keerzijde | A helmeted Roman soldier, draped and cuirassed, strides left and thrusts a spear downward with his right hand into a fallen enemy horseman; the soldier carries a large round shield on his left arm, with an additional shield resting on the ground to the right. The fallen horseman, wearing a Phrygian-style cap, faces the soldier with his right arm raised in a gesture of supplication or defense. This scene represents the canonical FEL TEMP REPARATIO fallen horseman type, emblematic of Roman military supremacy over barbarian foes. The reverse legend encircles the field, and the exergue contains the mint mark and officina letter(s) identifying the Antioch mint. The type was struck at multiple officinae, as indicated by the variety of exergual marks. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Constantius Gallus was appointed Caesar by his cousin Constantius II in 351 AD, given command of the eastern provinces, and executed by that same cousin in 354 AD after reports of erratic cruelty — including summary executions of Antioch's civic officials — made him politically untenable. Coins bearing his name as Caesar thus span barely four years, with production at Antioch concentrated in the early 350s before his fall.
The LRBC 2633 reference places this squarely among the lower-denomination bronze issues produced as the FEL TEMP coinage flooded eastern mints under Constantius II's monetary program.
